Review

... my favourite new mystery series ... perfect escapism ... (Sarah Weinman National Post 20120301)

The Wild Beasts of Wuhan is an entertaining dip into potentially fatal worlds of artistic skulduggery. (Joan Barfoot Sudbury Star 20120121)

... Hamilton uses Ava's investigations as comprehensive and intriguing mechanisms for plot and character development. (Natalie Samson Quill and Quire 20120517)

[Ava Lee] is definitely a winner. (Jenni Mortin Saskatoon StarPhoenix 20120207)

... fast-paced and very entertaining. (Anne Sutherland Montreal Gazette )

I'm devouring each book as it comes out. I'm impressed with Ava's character development as the series progresses ... if you want a great read and an education in high-level business dealings, Ian Hamilton is an author to watch. (Ellen Roseman Toronto Star )

Book Description

Book Three of the Ava Lee Novels. In The Wild Beasts of Wuhan, Uncle and Ava are summoned by Wong Changxing, "The Emperor of Hubei" and one of the most powerful men in China, when he discovers that the Fauvist paintings he recently acquired are in fact forgeries. Ava uncovers a ring of fraudulent art dealers and follows their twisted trail to Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Dublin, London, and New York. But the job is further complicated by Wong's second wife, the cunning and seductive May Ling, who threatens to interfere in Ava's investigation. Will Ava find the perpetrators and get the Wongs' money back? Or will May Ling get to them first . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars Could not put it down!, Feb 13 2012
This review is from: The Wild Beasts Of Wuhan (Paperback)
Thankfully it was too cold to spend time outdoors this weekend so I could stay inside and read this wonderful book cover to cover! It's Monday and I feel like I've a) travelled the world this weekend, b)learned much more about the art world, and c) learned more about Ava's interesting family and her new and complicated love interest. (And her style! Who knew Ava would love coloured sweaters so much!)

Bravo to the author. I can hardly wait for the NEXT Ava Lee book!

Part travelogue, incisive dialogue, imaginative plot, bold action. Once started, impossible to put down. Looking forward to more books in this series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another masterpiece by Hamilton!!, Feb 18 2012
This review is from: The Wild Beasts Of Wuhan (Paperback)
The Wild Beasts of Wuhan is a real treat for lovers of crime fiction. The Ava Lee series keeps getting better and better! Ava Lee returns in her third exciting romp through the world to recover the millions of dollars in a fraudulent art deal. I loved the originality of the plot as I learned much about the art world. Ava Lee is one gutsy female protagnist who continues to woo readers with her beauty, smarts and ingenuity. Huge praise for Hamilton!
