In The White Reflection, the follow-up to Elsa Hart's critically acclaimed debut, Jade Dragon Mountain, Li Du, an imperial librarian and previous exile in 18th-century China, is now an independent traveller. He's journeying with a trade caravan bound for Lhasa when a detour brings them to a valley hidden between mountain goes by. Around the icy planks of a solid wood bridge, a monk sits in contemplation. Closer inspection uncovers that the monk is lifeless, apparently of a self-inflicted wound. His robes are lease, revealing a bizarre symbol colored on his chest. When the rainfall turns to snow, the caravan is forced to get hospitality from the local lord while they wait for the storm to go away. The lifeless monk, Li Du soon discovers, was a reclusive painter. Based on the family, his bizarre suicide is not surprising, given his obsession with the demon world. But Li Du is persuaded that all is much less it appears. Why performed the caravan head detour to this particular valley? How come the lord's heir sleeping in the barn like a servant? And who's the mysterious female touring through the mountain wilds? Trapped in the snow, ornamented by secrets and an unexplained grief that haunts the manor, Li Du cannot distract himself from remembrances he's attempted to leave back of. As he discovers irrefutable evidence of the painter's murder and parts together the dark circumstances of his fatality, Li Du must face the reason he will not go home and, ultimately, the reason why he must.
