About this listen

 The new year starts with a bang in Sydney's Chinatown - and not just fireworks. While the rest of the country is celebrating, the biggest bank job in Australia's history is taking place. The press called it 'The Great Chinese Take-Away' but in those missing safety deposit boxes is something much more valuable than money. A gold key with a dragon on it. Why does the Chen family want it back so badly? What starts as a routine case soon leads Claudia Valentine into a world of ancient treasures and modern Triad killings, through the sleazy back streets and exotic oriental temples.©1990 Marele Day (P)1998 Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd Crime Thrillers Detective Fiction Mystery Thriller Thriller & Suspense Women Sleuths Women's Fiction Crime Suspense

Critic reviews

"The largest bank heist in Australian history finds investigator Claudia Valentine hired by a Chinese family to search for a key stolen from a safety deposit box. Effortlessly, narrator Diana Greentree transforms herself into the heroine detective and dispatches each scene and character. Her accents authenticate the story line, whether for a resident from Chinatown or a fellow Australian." (AudioFile Magazine)
