Synopsis

Alex Hawke, British lord and gentleman spy, is looking for the Queen's missing grandson, whose disappearance may be the culmination of a plot almost a century old in this breathtaking new adventure from New York Times bestselling novelist Ted Bell.

December 8, 1941, Washington, D.C.
The new Chinese ambassador to the United States, Tiger Tang, meets with President Roosevelt one day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. For the next four years, China and the U.S. will be wartime allies, but the charming, sophisticated ambassador may be playing his own treacherous game.

Today, The Bahamas
Alex Hawke is recovering from serious injuries incurred during a battle with a malevolent enemy. His recuperation is interrupted by a desperate call from the Queen. Her favorite grandson has disappeared in the Bahamas. Lord Hawke is the only man she trusts with a mission this sensitive. All she knows is that the young prince was last seen at the exclusive Dragonfire nightclub owned by the nefarious Tang brothers, grandsons of Ambassador Tiger Tang.

Really boring, if this was my first Alex Hawke, it would have been my last. I will read all the reviews before I buy another one. And this......more

I liked Lord Hawke and his adventures, but there were many grammatical errors, duplicate words, and sentences repeated twice. I’m surprised the editor/ publisher let the book go to print with so many errors.......more

Ted Bell holds a special place in my heart. I used to hate reading but while on vacation, my dad had Mr Bell's book "Assassin"about an English Lord named Alexander Hawke, descendant of the notorious pirate Blackhawke. From that book grew my love of reading and always enjoy the adventures of Lord Haw......more
