Book excerpt: From the author of FIRST PRIZE, a thriller about an indomitable American businessman whose integrity is pitted against the machinations of three governments. Merritt Fury, an American entrepreneur, savors his return to glamorous Hong Kong to meet with his itinerant business partners, until the irrational behavior of some of them sours his interest in the firm. Harry Briscoe, a senior partner whose business acumen Fury admires, offers his colleagues an ultimatum: agree to pay for the expansion of the firm's tungsten mine, or dissolve the partnership. Fury argues against the scheme, but Briscoe & others seem impervious to reason. And Fury soon realizes that he is the least welcome of all among Briscoe's partners. When Fury decides to stay in the partnership, he learns just how unwelcome he is. He is attacked in his hotel room, almost assassinated by a British secret agent, & courted by Amber Lee, a beautiful government economist who packs an automatic pistol. And when he is kidnapped, he grasps that he is the pivotal factor in a double conspiracy, & that the deadly conflict between his own integrity & the pragmatism of his colleagues could change the future of Hong Kong.
