One Country, Two Bullets
A book like no other, High Degree Of Atrocity dares to entertain and excite while tackling all the Chinese/Hong Kong political taboos. Along the way, each page crackles with intrigue and suspense.
A mysterious man joins a street demonstration as part of a conspiracy to topple Hong Kong's unpopular chief executive. As angry citizens march for democracy, two twitches on the trigger of a handgun leave a pair of important people dead on a sidewalk. Those gunshots fired on a sweltering afternoon unleash the worst nightmare Hong Kong people can imagine. One country, two bullets and three eventful days combine to send the city reeling in the throes of death. The stakes are high, and political fault-lines rumble all the way from Beijing to Washington. Amid chaos on the streets, pro-democracy campaigner Elsie Chan-Barrett and her husband Blair must struggle to survive while keeping alive an entire city's flickering hopes for a better future.
This action-packed novel hefts plenty of punch from the opening paragraph to the final one. Readers from around the world are invited along for an adrenalin-pumping ride.
