Publisher Description

Jack Higgins, the bestselling author of The Eagle Has Landed and Angel of Death, presents an explosive and timely thriller about the uncertain future of Hong Kong, China, and the world… 1944. Mao Tse-tung signs a secret document that could delay the Chinese takeover of Hong Kong for an additional one hundred years. But all copies of the document disappear in a plane crash. 1993. As Hong Kong prepares to be restored to China in 1997, England’s prime minister learns of the existence of Mao Tse-tung’s lost document. Former terrorist Sean Dillon is given direct orders to keep the document from coming to light – at all costs. One copy still exists, hidden in the wreckage of a plane on the bottom of a Scottish Loch. But Dillon’s not the only person searching for it. There are powerful business interests, including the Mafia, that will do anything to retain their power over Hong Kong – even if the delicate balance of world power is destroyed…

"Great book. It's been a while since I read it, but from what I remember, it is kind of like two books in one. The plot advances and changes pretty dramatically about 1/3 of the way through the book. Still, it doesn't detract from the overall enjoyment of reading the book."

    " It certainly seems to be a decent, quick-paced thriller but it just didn't hold my attention. I can say I read it but didn't get much out of it. "

    " Despite being written in 1994, the plot and the characterisations are firmly stuck in the 50's with the misogynism of that period in full flow. One of the principal characters, Sean Dillon, would make Dirk Pitt look like a 5 stone weakling. I a glad I borrowed this from a library! "
