Publishers Description: Annie Szabo has discovered a miracle: Jimmy Qi, a kid from Chinatown with the power to heal using music. Hes dazzling, hes a scoundrel, hes wise, and he makes a great newspaper article.But now everyone wants Jimmy. Feeling responsible for creating San Franciscos latest hot commodity, Annie enlists her mother-in-law, the audacious fortune-teller Madame Mina, to help keep Jimmy safe from his avid pursuers: an evangelist; an ex-hero with a troubled past; a tong society; a CDC doctor; a dolphin fanatic; and an FBI agent who seems too good to be true. Then the bodies start turning up. Annie grabs Jimmy and runs, luring the killer through a tangle of Chinese New Year celebrations and north up the deserted coast where she forces the killer to face justice. Once again, though the spicy Szabo women would like to kick back with a lover, a good movie, and a few laughs, life has something else in mind. One meeting with an extraordinary boy leads them headlong into another wild adventure. Annie and Mina wont back down until their world is set right.
