Tales of Two Cities

Published by CUSTOM BOOK PUBLICATIONS -- MARCUS SEEKS LOVE & DEVOTION ... BUT IS IT POSSIBLE? A beautiful foreign woman, a dazzling island city beckons and a corrupt homeland is unwilling to embrace change. Romania is a developing nation under single-party rule where the Japanese language and Asian culture predominates. Young Mainland policeman Marcus Sabratus visits the Romanian autonomous enclave of Mona on a holiday from his work collective. When Marcus recovers a stolen money purse owned by Keiko, he puts both their lives onto new paths. Marcus learns Japanese and brings Monan policing techniques to the Mainland, but reconciling his family and the Party with his unconventional choices proves difficult as he searches for a way to visit Mona and Keiko again? The forces of resistance in the Mainland are strong, he is told not to pursue scandals, and Keiko remains uncertain. Marcus must overcome the cultural and bureaucratic obstacles in his way to being united with his love... Set in an alternate universe similar in many ways to our own, The Gilded Cage is a cross-cultural love story that compares the variations with that truly constant in human affairs. The book is the first in a series on the life, loves and work challenges of Marcus.
