description: "The Hainan Incident is a thrilling ride through modern terrorism and Chinese culture. Nonstop action makes it impossible to put this book down until you've turned the last page." -- Traci Hunter Abramson, bestselling author of Smoke ScreenBefore beginning his first undercover assignment, American attorney Yi Jichun travels to Hainan Island on the South China Sea for some much-needed respite--but finds trouble instead. Already uneasy about his charge to expose corruption in China's court system, Yi stumbles upon a hidden computer network in an ancient island village and finds himself drawn into an investigation that tears him between his religious principles and the lie he must live.Aided by Sarah, an esteemed fellow judge, and Meijuan, a village leader exiled by her powerful and corrupt son, Yi uncovers the Hainan Net--an international organization that targets global shipping channels in its quest for world power. But Yi loses ground when Sarah discovers his true identity as a foreign spy--and as the American military organizes a stealth assault in full cooperation with China's government, Yi must reconcile the laws governing the land with the laws governing his honor.
