Summary

Summary from publisher:

The relationship between Peter Caine and Jennifer Sung ("Pai Gow") is heating up, but members of the Sung family object—some violently. And journalist Jennifer is being drawn into a murderous situation between two corrupt businessmen. In the ensuing dual conflict, Peter turns to his father to help save Jennifer...and himself.

Reactions and Reviews

This old-fashioned hurt/comfort story, which takes me right back to the days of my fannish youth, is from a couple of fannish veterans (with their roots in ST fandom in the 70s). It examines some deeper feelings along the way, but the hurt/comfort element is the heart of the story.
