About the book
About The Jade Nomad A Round-The-world Thriller by James Orlando
A world trip spanning three decades in an aggressively sporty two-door American station wagon - a vehicle which seduces and destroys. A chain of lovers falls for its garish charms but few survive the love affair. The silver station wagon is not so much the villain as an ominous presence. It destroys only those who let it rule their lives. Just occasionally others slip from its grasp.From an American ice hockey star, a young Englishman, a wealthy Hawaiian-Chinese beauty, expatriate Americans based in Hongkong, finally a footloose young Australian woman and her lover - who was born in Ohio where the Chevy started life 30 years earlier. It goes full circle. With few survivors.
