In Red Weather (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9789814610544)

Daniel F. Cameron, a young, idealistic, and resourceful American spy for CIA, lands in Surabaya at the most perilous time of the Cold War. A Harvard graduate, he is filled with the colorful visions of Somerset Maugham and Joseph Conrad, but finds himself thrust into the vortex of the turbulent 1960s. The U.S. was desperately attempting to thwart the efforts of the Soviet Union and Communist China to bring their brand of Communism to the giant and strategic land of Indonesia. Plunged into a world of intrigue and contradictions, Cameron soon finds himself working with Wim Vermuelen, a formidable maverick and former member of World War Two's Dutch Resistance. There begins an adventure driving through volcanoes, impassable terrain, and nightmarish road blocks. Through persistence and cunning the duo scores one of the major intelligence coups of the era.
