A Permanent Bond is an international and legal thriller which
explodes a conflict between a shipbuilder in the Republic of China
and one in the United States over the acquisition of a
revolutionary discovery: an epoxy that bonds enormous sheets of
steel, saving millions of dollars in labor costs during the
construction of large container vessels.
Ben Leavitt, an M.I.T. graduate who has spent years in his loft
configuring his formula, now faces a divorce from his neglected
wife who, with their eighteen year old son, has moved into posh
quarters on Louisburg Square on Beacon Hill, Boston, with her
boyfriend.
The riveting story details the activities of Chinatown in
Boston, the smuggling of immigrants through the foggy marshes and
wooded forests of the twenty-eight mile Indian Territory which
spans both sides of the United States and Canadian borders, the
kidnapping of Ben's son, Adam, and the struggle between two warring
Boston Tongs for approval from Beijing.
