It begins as lovely young Enid Branch arrives in Hong Kong to settle her dead sister Madge's estate...and ignites into a fire-storm of human emotion in the dark halls of Porter House, the mansion to which Madge was brought as a young bride by wealthy merchant Stephen Porter. And then Enid discovers the Jade Princess-first as a ghostly legend, then as a horrifying, life-threatening fact! To unravel this hideous generation-old riddle...to discover for herself the dark secret of Madge's death...and to plumb the air of mystery surrounding handsome Charles Milano-suddenly Enid is plunged into a maelstrom of terror, love, jealousy, and hate-an atmosphere of stark terror created by the hideous curse of the JADE PRINCESS!
