Described as "Indiana Jones meets Bruce Lee." Perfect for readers seeking for an adrenaline-pumping journey filled with heart-stopping suspense, cinematic thrills, and authentic multicultural representations.
Carved out of a mythical jade disk in the mid 8th century. The symbol of the first Dragon Emperor, Qin Shi Huang. The legitimizing device of the Throne -- the Heirloom Seal of the Realm.

Sebastian Lee, a recent college graduate, decides to take a gap year and teach English in Taiwan, to escape the mundane corporate nine-to-five job that awaits him upon graduation.

However, when an earthquake strikes on Mid-Autumn Festival night, one of Sebastian's students -- an old enigmatic Chinese Civil War veteran in his dying breath -- shares the secret of the long-lost ancient artifact with him. "Accidentally" promising to help, Sebastian is suddenly catapulted into an unforeseen whirlwind of a perilous treasure hunt.

Aided by his best friend Jack and the captivating Audrey, they embark on a high-stakes race spanning the landscapes of Taiwan. Together, they must decode cryptic clues, decipher perplexing puzzles, and confront unknown adversaries lurking in the shadows. Along the way, shocking secrets are uncovered, including a web of national and international conspiracies.

Why is the Heirloom Seal of the Realm hidden in Taiwan? Who hid it and why? And why would Sebastian's failure to find the Heirloom Seal influence the future of Taiwan's freedom and democracy?

This is the first book in the Sebastian Lee series, breaking new ground as one of the first action-adventure novels written in the voice of an AAPI protagonist.

"A page turner... I thought I'd just watched a Hollywood thriller... "

"Laugh-your-butt-off humour!"

"Finally an action-adventure novel by an AAPI writer."

"Part adventure story, part Taiwan travel guide... "
