Bespoke Travel Company and Beijing Postcards are proud to relaunch the official walking tour of Midnight in Peking, Paul French’s bestselling murder mystery published by Penguin Books.

This is your chance to retrace the footsteps of those embroiled in the grisly death of Pamela Werner in 1930s Peking – a death that shocked the foreign community to its core.

From the ominous ‘Fox Tower’ to the gritty ‘Badlands’ and the former foreign legation quarter, Lars Ulrik Thom – who has carried out painstaking additional research into the Chinese side of the case – will beat a path through the little known areas of old Peking, painting a vivid picture of a period in Beijing’s history it would rather forget. What's more, newly uncovered Chinese police reports on the case detail several characters not mentioned in the book, offering critical new perspectives on the murder. For fans of true crime, this is a tour not to be missed.

Terms & Conditions

Standard Group Cancellation Policy:

Tickets are non-refundable but are transferable to others provided we receive written notice of this at least 24 hours in advance of the tour. If you cannot attend for whatever reason, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can offer your place to someone on the waiting list.

The walk will take place come rain, shine or bad pollution, so if it’s raining please do bring an umbrella. If bad weather makes the walk impossible we will call you on the day of the tour on the number you provided to let you know it’s been cancelled and reschedule.

Covid-19 Group Tour Cancellation Policy: 
Bespoke Travel Company Ltd. recognises that plans may change unexpectedly due to Covid-19 outbreaks and that tours may be cancelled at short notice by the Beijing Tourism Bureau.
