What\'s a retired assassin to do but save the City by the Bay from an army of the dead?.

The Butcher of Beijing now lives a quiet life in San Francisco, importing antiques.
Until she\'s drenched in blood in the middle of a market in China, surrounded by bodies and the scent of blood and human waste as a lethal perfume.
Or was.
Because she is the Blade of the Soong Clan.
But Emiko never needed any magic.
Emiko Soong belongs to one of the eight premier magical families of the world.
