Description
This is a sweeping novel of the lives of twelve people thrown together by chance in the exotic territory of British-ruled Hong Kong and of their fateful reunion during the Chinese takeover decades later. In the years between the time of their separation and the moment of their reunion, some cross paths, some achieve international recognition, some become notorious, and others seem to fall off the face of the Earth. Their passions and careers mandated that they live in ways many would regard as a dream-and others, a nightmare. When they finally reunite, some will discover that it is not only the Cold War that is a part of the dustbin of history. BRUCE HERSCHENSOHN has numerous key contacts at the Nixon Presidential Library and the Reagan Presidential Library and will work to schedule book signings in October or November at these locations which will get a good deal of local coverage.
