Book description
The setting is Hong Kong, 1963. The action spans scarcely more than a week, but these are the days of high adventure: from kidnapping and murder to financial double-dealing and natural catastrophes — fire, flood, and landslide. Yet they are days filled as well with all the mystery and romance of Hong Kong — the heart of Asia — rich in every trade… money, flesh, opium, power.
The Noble House, the country’s oldest trading house, is in deep financial problems and the rival tai-pans, seeking revenge for blood feuds over a century old, gather for the kill. And when CIA and KGB become involved – Hong Kong becomes a deadly playground.
