High testosterone is the hook here, it virtually steams off the pages.
My wife, Ildiko, says I'm as indestructible as I am clumsy. I've lived through interesting times in interesting places. I have counted Hong Kong, southern China, Singapore, Korea and other islands and tropical ports of call in that part of the world, home at one time or another. And that doesn't count the two tours with Uncle Sam's traveling circus during the time of the Great Southeast Asian War Games. But the best place I've ever lived was Honolulu, Hawaii, where I spent three glorious years at Pearl Harbor and ran the very same streets where Caine runs now in fiction.
