A Brief History of the Boxer Rebellion: China's war on foreigners 1900 by Diana Preston.
Really, really interesting. I knew vaguely about the Boxer Rebellion, but nothing like what I read here. Rebellion, for example, is really a misnomer; it really was more like a war. And it's interesting to imagine what the world would have been like if they had won . . .
Also, The Pack of Lies by John Creasey as Gordon Ashe.
