En savoir plus sur le livre

In 1997, Hong Kong was handed back to Communist China, but by 2020, the Chinese government began to undermine the Joint Declaration that was supposed to ensure the region's stability. As freedom of speech diminished and laws were altered, residents began to question whether they were better off under British rule. The Handover had turned into a Takeaway. Unbeknownst to the tram passengers, two decades prior, a bold plan emerged from Guandong Province. If the pro-Beijing administration in Hong Kong became too oppressive, 'Operation Opium' would be initiated, targeting the assassination of China's leader and establishing the Pearl Delta Republic. Hundreds of millions were secretly raised to fund this operation, which involved recruiting a notorious Palestinian terrorist from the CIA's wanted list. However, other powerful forces also had their own agendas, leading to intricate planning. This narrative unfolds not just as a thrilling tale in the South China Sea but also reveals high-level collaborations involving London and Washington. The question remains: who knew what, and how deep did the conspiracy run?
