CHAPTER 1
{Three local Chinese males converse outside Terminal B’s Men’s restroom at China’s Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport}
“給我你的一些啤酒。” (“Give me some of your beer, Feng.”)
“沒有，讓你自己的。” (“No, get your own.”)
“嘿，黃，看著它！再次推我，我會打斷你的胳膊。“ (“Hey, Huang, watch it! Shove me again and I’ll break your arm.”)
“冷靜下來你們兩個。注意。和講英語。“ (”Calm down, you two goons. Pay attention. And speak English.”)
“The Big Boss says we need to practice English. We need to communicate with our hostages in English,” warned Guozhi, the obvious group leader. “Follow closely as I go over the plan one final time.”
American for Sale: The Demise of ISIS Description:
“A wryly humorous tale that is all too timely.”….. Jane Newhagen.
“An optimistic adventure set against the ugliness of modern warfare in Syria.”– Kirkus Reviews
A sight so “normal’ it fails to shock anymore; a westerner in an orange jumpsuit being paraded in front of a camera by ISIS.
Bret Lee, an American college professor kidnapped in China and smuggled to Syria, finds himself in that perilous predicament as a looming prelude to being either sold for $10 million or beheaded by a twisted ideology. Can he turn the tables on his captors and become the spy who brings ISIS down? If you love espionage thrillers, especially one laced with humor, geopolitics, the CIA, a sexy female Kurdish warrior, a bloody gunfight in the Iraqi desert, and super-secret Tweets, don’t miss this book.
