Fending off a Dragon from Hebe Haven: A Chinese American CIA agent living through the Hong Kong protests and Taiwan presidential election of 2019 (Paperback)

Jeff Li lost his parents after his father was wrongfully accused of spying for China. Years later he was working as a double agent in Hong Kong and feeling the need for a change to cope with isolation and self-doubt. The year of 2019 presented opportunities for him to advance his CIA career and his relationship with his girlfriend who did not know about his secret occupation. Several assignments during this year placed Jeff on the scenes of police brutality against the protesters in Hong Kong and the track of international spies linked to the Taiwan presidential election. Jeff had the front row seat of witnessing the war between the powerful and the powerless and the ensuing divisions among his own family and friends, some of whom are well-known. When Jeff's uncle turned out to be a high-ranking spy for China, Jeff had to make a choice between loyalty and betrayal.
