内容简介As the Hong Kong handover boom fizzles into the Asian economic bust, a young American couple's marriage and careers tumble into a maze of television news, betrayal, high finance, and cheap lingerie. While the multicultural melting pot bubbles with pure gold, mistakes are easy to overlook. But the economic crisis ripens relationships for treachery, creates opportunities for revenge, and moves China center stage - triggering a great leap forward for some, a long march to failure for others. "Muhammad Cohen is a darn good writer. His sharp insights and pointed wit will change the way you look at news anchors, bankers, 28-year-old heirs to media empires high on nicotine gum, and Japanese food." - Lorraine Hahn, broadcast journalist "Cohen was a well-placed insider during the tumultuous Hong Kong handover. Only a thin veil separates his account from what really went on during that historic time." - Dalton Tanonaka, veteran Asia journalist "It's uncanny how much of my own dysfunctional life I saw in his prose." - Bernard Lo, veteran Hong Kong news presenter "Hong Kong On Air is as much One Country, Two Systems as it is One Great Read, Two Thumbs Up." - James Chau, television news anchor ..".the great American Hong Kong handover novel." - Laurence E. Lipsher, American Chamber of Commerce
