For over two thousand years the secret hiding place of the jade dragon seal of Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, has been just that - a secret. But the accidental destruction of a small ancient porcelain pillow reveals the secret, and leads the young Australian teacher and his Scottish friend away from their peaceful college at Nandaihe on the shore of the Bo Sea, drawing them up into the freezing bleakness of the jagged mountains of Huangshan as they try to locate the ancient tomb where the faithful retainer to the emperor had hidden the jade seal, entombing it far from the place where his now dead emperor lay in state. But not only must the two friends find the hidden tomb carved into the living rock of one of the jagged peaks of Yellow Mountain, they must also outwit and elude those who would steal their secret, the jade seal, and their lives.
