Detective Inspector Chen is getting used to visiting Heaven. It is a peaceful place, but the eerie calm and ever-present scent of peaches make him yearn for the chaos of Singapore Three. He has come to visit Mhara, the Emperor of Heaven, who ascended to the celestial throne after his father went mad and launched an ill-advised invasion of Hell. Order has been restored to the cosmos, and Mhara is characteristically serene, but trouble is lurking for this handsome young god. Someone is trying to kill the Emperor of Heaven, and Chen does not have his demonic partner, Zhu Irzh, to fall back on. Zhu Irzh has vanished, Chen?s wife is in danger, and a psychotic Bollywood star is on the warpath. It?s another day in the office for the occult detective?a day that, if he doesn?t restore order quickly, could be the universe?s last.

In this third "Detective Inspector Chen" installment, Chen and Zhu must escort an emissary from heaven on a mission to hell.

Zhu Irzh, a demon cop, joins the Singapore Three police department to investigate cases that involve both Earth and the underworld.

A former Soviet scientist, Elena Irinovna cleans office buildings. Ilya Muromyets is an eight-hundred-year-old remnant of Russia's glorious past. Now he's a broken man. They are brought together by a strange artifact made of an unknown metal that offers a glimpse into another dimension, creating a dangerous breach in a world they both only thought they knew...
