Zhang Tao, Chief of the Ministry of State Security (MSS) in China, is furious. Not only did his officers lose one of the most important scientists in the country, but they did so in a humiliating way on the streets of Hong Kong. Heads will likely roll, possibly even his own, in Brad Thor and Ward Larsen’s new thriller novel, “Cold Zero.”
On the other side of the Pearl River Estuary, an ultra-luxury aircraft is just departing from Macau. On board is Zhang Tao’s missing quarry—Dr. Chen Lee. Lee was the top computer scientist working in China until he decided to defect to the United States. He’s being assisted by two agents from the CIA, Kasey Sheridan and Walter Ho.
