Typical I stalment in the judge dee stories. Couple of related interlocking mysteries, mild action, puzzle and satisfying resolution bit in this one about tantric Buddhism, which I hadn’t really encountered (Sting doesn’t count)

Characters, provided you make allowances for the time and cultural differences, are likable. There is some humor and a nice , twisty mystery with even a slightly gothic flavor. Satisfying ending, as in all the judge dee I have read, with the good rewarded and the bad punished

Love judge deed, unlike a lot of historical detective story writers, van gulik didn't saddle his characters with anachronistic , political lay correct mindsets. Gives them a touch of authenticity
