Hurricane York: The Zemblanity Saga.

Genre: Contemporary Literary Thriller / Neo-Noir / Psychological Drama
Setting: Hong Kong, 1994-1997, during the final years of British rule

Premise:

Hurricane York is a haunting, sensual, and politically charged novel that follows Daniel Sagar, a British-born graduate sent to Hong Kong by a powerful American corporation in the final years before the 1997 handover. What begins as a glamorous expat posting quickly unravels into a dark journey through colonial ghosts, systemic corruption, trauma, forbidden desire, and a city on the brink of transformation.

As Daniel becomes entangled in a deadly land dispute and a string of unsolved deaths-including that of a prominent barrister and a high-class escort-he finds himself drawn into the inner workings of a decaying empire where loyalty is traded, truth is manipulated, and identity is never secure.
