The black dragon / by Julian Sedgwick.

The black dragon / by Julian Sedgwick.
black dragon /
Born and raised in the wild and weird Mysterium, Danny Woo is trained -- like his parents before him -- in the circus arts of sleight of hand, escapology and hypnotism. Following his parents' death in a mysterious fire, Danny is sent to live with his aunt Laura, an investigative journalist. When Danny's school is closed after an explosion, he joins Laura on a trip to Hong Kong. She is researching the Triad gangs; he is trying to understand more about his cultural background. But Laura disappears, and Danny is plunged into a dangerous quest to find her - which opens the door on the past he could never have imagined, and which leads him to question everything he has ever known about his past.
