Book excerpt: Beth Connor is suddenly plunged into the nightmarish world of underground Hong Kong when she is kidnapped by the Chinese Mafia while on her way to meet her fiancé's parents. A former Olympic runner, Connor makes a daring escape, only to find herself alone and bewildered in an unfamiliar and threatening world of seedy nightclubs and illicit pornography. It will take guts, street smarts, and a healthy dose of good luck for Connor to outfox the Triads still on her trail—as they are determined to teach the American Girl a lesson she'll never forget.
