The Trade Experiment (Book 2): The China Affairs (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781732463684)

#1 New Release

Jack Gold has done the impossible: he has penetrated the China's Control Center and broadcast a message of both personal and economic freedom to the country's 1.4 billion citizens. With a new president and an opening of the information that citizens have access to, Jack hopes that China will transform into the country he has always known it can be.

But change does not come easily and Jack finds his newfound fame difficult to deal with, especially when his main focus now is on trying to repair the damage to his relationship with Jojo.

China isn't done with Jack yet, though, and Jojo's father, Wang Yang, the new head of state in China, needs Jack's help in carving out a new trade deal that is acceptable to both China and the United States. It's a staggeringly tall order, but it is just the sort of challenge Jack could never turn down, no matter the cost to his personal well-being.

Yet his involvement stokes angers no one had anticipated, putting both Jack's life and his relationship with Jojo in danger. From Beijing to DC, from Vegas to Cabo, Jack is up against a myriad of forces that want nothing more than to see him fail and will go to extreme lengths to ensure that happens.

Written by Brad Good, who started living and working in the People's Republic of China in 1988, THE CHINA AFFAIRS is a series of four novels that take place in China. Good brings rare on-the-ground knowledge of contemporary Chinese political, social, and cultural issues, and associated international affairs.
