About this product

Product Information

Set against the wretched trade in drugs and human misery operating during the Vietnam War, Bryce Courtenay'sFortune Cookieis a spellbinding thriller, with a story of love against impossible odds at its heart. Simon Koo is an ambitious Australian-born Chinese who goes to Singapore in the mid-sixties to work for an advertising agency. But the Wing brothers, who run the agency, are not what they seem. There is soon trouble when Simon falls in love with the forbidden Mercy B. Lord. With no family or connections, this beautiful young woman is powerless to resist the evil influence of Beatrice Fong, a manipulative businesswoman who, in league with the Wing brothers, lures her into the dark and dangerous international trade in sex workers and heroin trafficking involving the American CIA. Simon must save her at any cost. Set against the wretched trade in drugs and human misery operating during the Vietnam War, Fortune Cookie is a compelling thriller, with a story of love against impossible odds at its heart. 'A multi-layered, cross-genre epic with tremendously broad appeal.' Sun-Herald 'This book is Mad Men in a cheongsam with a burgeoning advertising industry and Chinese culture mixed with a healthy dollop of romance, mystery and intrigue.'

Top tier seller! Item was exactly as pictured and as described. Communication was fast, polite and helpful when needed (to address an administrative issue on my end). Item had been carefully packaged, was well protected and arrived safely. Would definitely buy from again.

  • This is Courtenay at his best.

    This is Courtenay at his best, a great book, hard to put down. A good quality read about love and racial conflict set in the time of the Vietnam war. Drugs, sex, money and the CIA all keep you captivated right to the last page. A thoroughly enjoyable reading experience.
