What to read after Under the Chinese Dragon?

Young David Harbor, an excellent horseman, had returned home to hear the final reading of his father’s will. Harbor senior had left England bound for China three years earlier and, based on reports, it was concluded had been attacked and killed by boxer rebels and had not been heard of since.

Out of a vast fortune, David was left a miniscule amount for schooling and education up to the age of twenty-one and after which he was to inherit a mere two thousand pounds.

David challenged the will which resulted in a blazing after a row during which he was told he was not wanted in the house anymore. The quarrel was about the remainder of the estate to which he believed his step-mother and the lawyer were conspiring to defraud him. David came away determined to make his own way in the world. It hadn’t taken him long to realise he was dependent solely upon himself.

He made his way to London to find work to earn a passage to China, to find his father and expose his conniving step-mother. During his three years away, David had maintained close correspondence with his father and had kept a log of the roads travelled and places he had visited and as a result knew where to start the search.

Will David journey via the Silk Road or will he make a more traditional sea voyage? And what of the beautiful Charlotte, will she wait for David?
