Synopsis:
The U.S. government sends Jake Grafton to Hong Kong to find out how deeply the U. S. consul general Tiger Cole is embedded in a dangerous plan to overthrow the Chinese regime. He takes his wife Callie with him. They haven’t returned to the island since their first meeting there and Tiger Cole is an old friend from those days. Their trip soon turns into their worst nightmare.
Hong Kong is a powder keg ready to explode. A political murder and the Communist government’s closure of a foreign bank are the sparks that light the fuse and Tiger Cole is right in the middle of the action. After a violent rebel faction kidnaps Callie, Jake suddenly finds himself pulled into the vortex of a high tech civil war.
Joining forces with CIA operative Tommy Carmellini, Jake races to save Callie from the imminent bloodbath. But first he must figure out who he can trust among the Western factions vying for control in the volatile situation and among the Chinese patriots fighting for their nation’s future. Now, more than ever, he must make sure that the right side wins. One false move is all it will take to doom his wife an the entire world,
