East Of Egypt is a fictional story that uses the CIA's sordid history of drug production, to support its secret wars in Asia and the Middle East. It spins a tale of betrayal and survival in the Golden Triangle. From the Mekong to Hong Kong, each page finds the reader glued in suspense. The story is a psychological thriller that weaves its way into the darkest shadows of an Asia few outsiders ever see. Bill Murphy and David Anderson, two ex-CIA field operatives, use their training from the CIA and begin to thrive as drug merchants until a war between themselves and the triad societies of Hong Kong take the story in an explosive new direction.
