Burn the opium. Keep the gold.
Mike Tucker, from CHINATOWN
A wild ride into the heart of the opium mafia in Asia, CHINATOWN is a politically-charged crime story that could not be more entertaining, thrilling and provocative. Mike Tucker gives scintillating insight to the opium wars in Asia in our time and the greed and pride at the root of American foreign policy failure in China and Vietnam since the 1920s. This is CHINATOWN, the sequel to NOMAD and the first book by an American novelist to call for Trump's impeachment.
NOMAD is a classic journey story and a magnificent epic -point-blank, gripping and poignant, a story that we would not know except for Mike Tucker's journey among the farmers and fishermen in North China. The Chinese revolutionaries, spies and guerrilla fighters have their say and could not be more real, convincing and authentic. A stunning, riveting novel, NOMAD-I could not put it down. Bravo, Mike Tucker.

SPARTACUS DID THE RIGHT THING is one of the novels that has won Mike Tucker's prose just comparison to Ernest Hemingway. Tucker's short, energetic sentences are stripped down and laconic, lending a rhythm and directness to the narrative that immediately recalls Hemingway.
