About this listen
Elliot is hiding in his world of boats from a past that has wounded him. He is anti-authoritarian, lacking direction and broke.
Emma is terrified of life outside the studious, ordered world of Oxford. But circumstances propel her into the dangerous world of international subterfuge.
Kai is a Chinese triad gang leader, who is all too familiar with violence. However, he is now questioning his life, and seeking redemption.
The three of them meet in Hong Kong, a place where money is king, corruption is rife, and the secret societies of the triads are flourishing. Somehow they need to band together to outwit the murderous intent of powerful corporations, and Hong Kong's ruthless triad societies.
Perfect for those who enjoy Ernest Dempsey, David Leadbeater, and Graham Greene. This novel will draw you in and refuse to let you go.

The bushman leaves Chris with a mysterious and incongruous legacy, a Celtic cross made of stone. Partly blinded and in deep grief at no longer being able to fly, Chris finds his way to the Hebridean islands off the west coast of Scotland, where he seeks to unravel the secrets of the Celtic stone.

The factory where she works begins to lay off people and it isn't long before she has fallen into the hands of the violent local money-lender.
