Assignment Peking

They gave him another man's face, some phony confidence and sent him into China on the most terrifying mission of his life. Durell didn't have time to thank them. Maybe because his face just didn't fit, and maybe because he was too busy trying to keep alive. Whatever the motive Sam Durell, alias the dreaded Major Shan of L-5, had a lot on his mind. Trouble was brewing fast. Trouble in the form of General Chien─agent, prisoner of L-5, and likely to spill at any time. Durell had to bring him or kill him─they left that to his discretion. And to satisfy his nocturnal intersts they gave him Jasmine ─a sweet fragrant flower, but as deadly as belladonna. Durell wasn't too hot on Confucius but he did know that, "He who hath no business in Peking, shouldn't be looking". From Back Cover Blurb
