Detective Dee: The Mystery of the Phantom Flame

In ancient China, a retired investigator is lured out of retirement to crack a string of inexplicable murders that imperil the coronation of the Empress Wu.

In 689 A.D., Empress Wu Zetian builds a 66m tall Buddha statue despite opposition from other clans. The engineer's mysterious death by spontaneous combustion sparks fear among workers, who suspect the removal of good luck charms from the main pillar. As more investigators die, Empress Wu sends her loyal assistant Shangguan Jing'er to free Detective Dee from exile, tasking him with uncovering the truth alongside Pei Donglai and Jing'er.
