Jean Leconte uncovers a conspiracy of silence while working at an aviation production plant in Tianjin, China. His Chinese suppliers withhold critical parts unless his company shares confidential information. Efforts to get help from his company and government officials in Brussels fail, and he is warned not to disclose China's practices.Unwilling to acquiesce, Jean reaches out to Glo-Ex, a covert business alliance, for help. Kellie Liang and Carter Armstrong, known as the Colonel, take charge of Glo-Ex's efforts to expose the broader implications of China's dominance in rare earth minerals. Kellie and the Colonel initially focus on Europe but soon recognize China's dominance in processed rare earth minerals as a major threat to U.S. military and civilian interests.When they reach out to their contacts in Washington, D.C., they realize those who are willing to help lack information and those who have the information are actively trying to suppress disclosure.Can Kellie and the Colonel find a way to expose the looming danger without being silenced?Timothy Trainer, an attorney, worked in multiple federal government agencies and in the private sector. His non-traditional legal career included significant time focused on international trade issues. His work required extensive travel around the world, including dozens of trips to the Asia-Pacific region. His experiences led him to co-author a legal treatise for fifteen years, penning three novels, The China Connection, The China Factor and Pendulum Over the Pacific, and authoring a non-fiction book The Fortunate Son: Top, Through the Eyes of Others, about men who served in Vietnam with his father.For more information, visit timothytrainer.com
