Do you know Hong Kong? The author paints an evocative 1975 portrait of a beautiful, frenetic city-state plagued by crime and corruption.
An engineer arrives to construct the Mass Transit and stumbles across a drug and antiquities smuggling triad, funded by fixing horse racing; in a Malaysian cave he discovers a plot to demolish the Golden Gate.
British intelligence recruit a Chinese woman to infiltrate the triad; the CIA despatch an agent. The engineer is repeatedly targeted as tension builds.
An excellent sense of place and time underpin this dramatic, fast paced adventure which embraces Japan, the USA and Thailand before culminating in a thrilling chase through the Cat Street district.
Join the main characters as they become involved with gangsters and terrorists from three different cultures whilst unearthing a surprising, personal relationship.
