VIETNAM
PRESENT DAY
Eddie Seng stood at the curb of Da Nang International Airport’s
arrivals area, just as he’d been instructed. The awning of the modern
facility shaded him from the midafternoon sun, but it made the
muggy July day only marginally more comfortable in his light wool
suit. An elegant black limousine showed up as expected and glided to
a stop next to him. Eddie was familiar with executive vehicles and
immediately recognized it as a Mercedes Maybach V12, the crème de
la crème of exotic automobiles.
The uniformed chauffeur walked around the front of the car and
opened a wide door. Eddie entered a resplendent interior and settled
into a soft cream leather seat, wondering if he would get out alive.
A man in a black suit, sitting in the middle rear-facing row of
seats, waved a metal detector over Eddie to check him for weapons,
but he had followed instructions and was unarmed. In the rear seat
next to Eddie, Zhong Lin, field agent for China’s Ministry of State
Security, stared at him as the car pulled away. Instead of a suit, he
wore a black T-shirt and pants, and his thin lips were creased with
lines, the sign of a longtime smoker. For a moment, Zhong said
nothing, merely appraising the person he thought was a Taiwanese
traitor known as David Yao.
Eddie had, in fact, grown up in New York City’s Chinatown,
learning Mandarin and English simultaneously from his parents.
Because his normal accent was bland in both languages, he’d spent
the past two weeks in Taiwan’s capital, Taipei, getting accustomed to
the local dialect.
Most of his career with the CIA had been as a deep-cover
operative on the Chinese mainland, so playing a part was nothing
new to him. However, he hadn’t been this close to an agent from the
MSS, China’s intelligence organization, since his CIA cover had been
blown and he was forced to escape back to the United States. As a
wanted fugitive, he’d been sentenced to death in absentia, with his
face well known to China’s authorities. If Zhong Lin even suspected
who he was, he would be whisked out of Vietnam in shackles to
Beijing for a swift execution.
His current disguise was meant to prevent that from happening.
The real David Yao was a member of the Ghost Dragon triad, one of
Taiwan’s most notorious gangs. Yao was suspected of being
responsible for numerous extortion, racketeering, and murder plots,
but his mutilated body had been found floating on the ocean by a
U.S. Navy ship two weeks ago. When the CIA realized that his corpse
provided the opportunity for Eddie’s current operation, they asked
the Navy to delay notifying the Taiwanese authorities of the
discovery.
