As Hong Kong prepares to be restored to China in 1997, powerful business interests – including the Mafia, with an investment of billions in the city – brace for the ramifications and will do anything to stop the lease from expiring. In London, Brigadier Ferguson – head of the prime minister’s special action unit – has learned of a copy of the mysterious Chungking Covenant. This document, long believed lost, was signed in China in 1944 by Mao and Lord Mountbatten on behalf of Winston Churchill. In return for arms and assistance in his war with Japan, Mao agreed to extend the  Hong Kong Treat by 100 years if he ever came to power in China. If the Covenant ever becomes public, the delicate balance between China, England and America will be destroyed. Ferguson must stop the document coming to light. https://cosmiccauldronbooks.com.au/p/dvd-on-dangerous-ground-rob-lowe/
