Dr Jaqueline Silver, professional engineer and explosive expert, needs money to pay for damage to an expensive yacht. She reluctantly accepts a lucrative contract in China. Jaq makes two trips east the first is an allexpensespaid official business trip but the jointventure factory she is sent to visit vanishes overnight. She returns to the UK to take up a job in the northernmost part of Scotland, a windfarm on the Shetland Isles. Concern for a former Teesside University student prompts her to return to China. On the unofficial lowbudget visit she sees a different side to the country. A road trip takes her from Shanghai to Zhengzhou, from the Shaolin Temple home of Kung Fu to the rare earth mines of Jiangxi. She outwits corrupt police, duplicitous industrialists, only to come face to face with death near the Banqiao hydroelectric dam.
