'Death, Debauchery 'n Deception

'When the Australian based Down Under Corporation decides to expand its operation in Asia to Shanghai, it sends their ace trouble shooter Steve Conway to seek out a site. On arrival in Shanghai Conway meets the beautiful Selina Chan, who unknown to Conway, is the right hand of Jao Min who controls the Shanghai underworld.

'Jao is being challenged for supremacy by another gangster, Du Jing Ling, who is determined to take over, whatever the cost in human life…one of those lives being that of Steve Conway who finds himself caught in the middle of a savage gang war when Du believes he is aligned with Jao.

'Adding to his woes are several attempts on his life – one of which, is from a business colleague of Selina and a deadly seduction from the sexy Wendy Han.

'Wild exotic women, Batman character impersonators, murderous locals and a host of other intriguing characters make up this tale ranging across Vietnam, The Philippines, Australia and China culminating in Conway facing his greatest danger yet.' (Publication summary)

'Manila hotelier Steve Conway returns to Vietnam to look for an old wartime friend and falls in love with a local girl. But the relationship is threatened by cross-cultural differences, family resistance, and a jealous, dangerous suitor.

'Conway persuades his employers to allow him to look at expanding their operation in Saigon. He has found the love of his life and the relationship blossoms but behind the scenes he is unaware that moves are taking place to bring about its destruction. He also does not realise he is being stalked by a crazy ex-Marine intent on killing him.

'What started out as a short holiday becomes a turning point in Steve Conway's life, leading to a roller coaster ride of love, hate, murder and ultimate tragedy.'
