Beschreibung
Die Chinesin Kwok Yun hat ein UFO entdeckt und dem "westlichen" Mann an Bord aus seiner Notlage geholfen. Schnell ist der Geheimdienst zur Stelle, und als der "Verdächtige" Kwok Yun mit reichlich Dollars belohnt, wird sie zur lokalen Berühmtheit - und steht unter ständiger Beobachtung ...A fast moving, barbed polemic from the author of "A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers". A tale of the unexpected.
