Used book – Le Baiser du dragon, Ysabelle Lacamp

Southern China, 10th century: Lord Tsao makes a stop at his manor before delivering a precious cargo to his suzerain. The treasure is bound to arouse covetousness. For two caskets of pearls, fates will be overturned. That of the innocent Shu-Meï, but also those of Hilarious Tiger, Extinguished Passion, Trembling Triton, Pensive Turd... From intrigues to refined tortures, corrupt mandarins, disgraced courtesans, lecherous monks, and the vilest cutthroats will challenge each other in a wild adventure: orgies, cavalcades, betrayals... The charming Ysabelle Lacamp, actress, singer, and also a graduate of oriental languages, is now a writer. The Dragon's Kiss is a picturesque, colorful, and comical novel, such as one rarely reads. In this Rabelaisian world, people fight as they love. With laughter.
