The Chinese populist Tuanpai faction is dissatisfied with the rapid pace of change by the elitist princeling coalition to transform the country into a full market economy. The Tuanpai embark on an audacious plan to trigger a global disaster that will bring down the princelings and humble America. In the aftermath, America identifies China as the culprit, but doesn't know if this was a rogue operation or a government sponsored plot. The Chinese president knows the perpetrators, but has no proof. Fearful of American retaliation, he invites U.S. investigators to help him find proof while outraged countries apply economic sanctions. Under a cloud of mutual suspicion, the investigation stumbles and America readies itself for a military confrontation. This is a mind-bending expose of international politics and distrust between two vastly different cultures. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

This book was hard to put down, and part of that was not just the fact that it was intriguing and quite a page turner, but because of the writing of the author. This is my first time reading one of Vucak's books and this is very well written. The author is very knowledgeable about the clashes of American and
Chinese cultures. The distrust between the two cultures with the mix of international politics that could spark a global disaster brings this story to life. It's full of the American "alphabet soup". "That is why this FBI investigation is so important, Qishan. We must identify and eliminate dissident elements within the Party. If we fail, we could end up like the American Congress, a dysfunctional institution that has paralyzed America’s ability to be a truly dominant global power." I look forward to reading more of his work. ( )
