Can the Chinese foil a US oil grab in the Middle East? This topical
spy thriller captures the turmoil of the War on Terror and weaves
agents of the Chinese Government into the plot, pulling the reader
into a world of subterfuge and shifting alliances which may well
mirror tomorrow's headlines. A young China expert at the US embassy
in Riyadh learns a shocking secret: the US will use a hostage
crisis as a pretext to invade the Saudi kingdom and seize control
of its oilfields. Meanwhile, the daughter of a radical cleric is
desperate to escape an arranged marriage. As she attempts to flee
the country, her half-brother becomes embroiled in an Al-Qaeda plot
to drive out the American infidels - a plan the newly assertive
Chinese are determined to stop. As the US and China compete for
mastery of the Gulf, an American diplomat risks betraying his
country and a Saudi woman risks her life - but what price betrayal
in a land ruled and divided by harsh Islamic law?
