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. </p><p>"The last time I was so taken with a spellbinding safari was when I read <em>Gone With The Wind</em>." -- <em>Los Angeles Times</em>. </p></br></br></br></br></br></br></br>
