In Hong Kong in 1963, Ian Dunross becomes tai-pan of Struan’s and inherits a company threatened by debt, hostile takeover and the accumulated rivalries of the Noble House. He seeks American investment while Quillan Gornt uses financial pressure and family grievance to bring the company down.
The corporate struggle is entangled with British colonial government, Chinese business networks, organised crime and competing Communist, Nationalist and Soviet intelligence operations. A bank run, stock-market panic and natural disaster turn one week of negotiation into a wider crisis of confidence.
