THIS IS A COLLECTION OF SHORT STORIES PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED INDIVIDUALLY.

Filling in some of the gaps between the full-length novels, this collection of short stories starts in 1987 when Bill Jedburgh is still in the Royal Hong Kong Police and first meets some of the key characters that appear later in the books. The final story is set in 2009 when Jedburgh gets help from an unexpected ally freeing a Danish diplomat who has been arrested in Shenzhen. Along the way we find The Reliable Man tasked to kill the Mayor of Davao (unsuccessfully, since he’s now the President of the Philippines) and avenging the death of an African-American scuba diving buddy. For regular readers of the series who enjoy remembering the simpler more visceral days of Asia in the 1980s and 90s, this is the perfect Christmas gift.
