The Archipelago Game — Dominic Martell

Asia is Terra Incognita for Pascual, but the CIA says his bill has come due for the protection they've been providing him. Now he's off to Singapore to be the front man for an agency op to funnel cash through shell companies to fund unspecified activities. His local contact is Dexter Fang, an Indonesian-Chinese billionaire in bed with the spooks. Dexter's right-hand woman is a Eurasian knockout whose looks are rivaled only by her cold efficiency; his Chinese chauffeur seems to know a lot about Dexter's affairs. When the op is sabotaged by operatives who can only be from China, Dexter and company are off to the vast Indonesian archipelago to throw off pursuit. If makes it back to alive, Pascual will know more about geopolitical intrigue than he ever wanted to— and he'll never be the same.
