A Deflowered Lotus

The earthy Maoist Revolution produced several generations of privileged, elitist leaders. They, and their no-less mini-monarch offspring continued a hard core of leadership dominating all major industries. Han Kai, the grandson of one who marched with Mao, attended America’s best boarding schools and universities; these earmarks projected him to manage Chinese Sovereign Fund investments in the US. He encounters the plotting Greta Stadler, an American committed to recovering Nazi-looted art rightfully owned by her ancestors lost to the Holocaust. The unlikely twosome greedily engages in deceptions that dust away all obstacles to their rubbery restlessness for vast wealth.
