Shan Westin - half-Chinese, half-American, one hundred
percent kung fu badass - is on a mission to recover five
mystical jade animals before they fall into the wrong hands.
Over 15 years ago, Shan's mother led a secret society of
female martial artists sworn to protect the statues. When
the Jade Circle lost four of the five statues during a
murderous attack on their sanctuary, 12-year-old Shan's
destiny was sealed. It was she who carried the remaining
tiger statue all the way to America; she who felt it clawing
at her with the need to recover the crane, snake, leopard
and dragon. The Circle was destroyed that night, and Shan
hasn't seen her mother since. Shan has grown up under the
tiger's unforgiving influence and the shadow of her mother's
legacy. Her quest to recover the statues takes her to
upstate New York and Ian Dashall, a geeky but brave
archaeology professor, and then on to France and England
with Ian at her side. Finally, on a secret island off the
coast of Hong Kong, Shan overcomes torture, betrayal and
deadly tigers in order to battle the man who destroyed the
Jade Circle. But even as she faces off with him, she loses
hope. How can she possibly succeed where her mother had failed?
