The Poksu Conspiracy

Начало книги

Poksu continues the saga of Burke Hill, former FBI agent and protagonist of Beware the Jabberwock. The cover features South Korea's National Treasure No. 1, Namdaemun, Seoul's Great South Gate. Beneath it are the hangul (Korean) characters for poksu, which translates as "vengeance." It has a different meaning in Chinese, which you'll learn in the book. Since there is a large cast of characters, many of them with strange names, I thought it would be helpful to you, the reader, to have a list of the people who inhabit the story. They are listed below by category. Should you get confused at some point by just who a character is, you can return to the Who's Who and refresh your memory.

(Washington-based CIA spinoff):

Nathaniel (Nate) Highsmith, President

Burke Hill, chief financial officer, clandestine group director

Tony Carlucci, Highsmith's executive assistant

Jerry Chan, manager of Seoul Office
