An epic novel of the Cold War in the bestselling tradition of Herman Wouk and James Clavell.

Passport is a sweeping and dramatic novel of the lives of twelve people thrown together by chance in the exotic territory of British-Ruled Hong Kong and of their fateful reunion during the Chinese takeover decades later. In the years between the time of their separation and the moment of their reunion, some cross paths, some achieve international recognition, some become notorious — and all are changed by the events that make up the Cold War. When they finally reunite, all they have gone through reflects a tumultuous time that changed everyone and everything, and established America as the sole superpower in the world.

Passport is a window into a time that clarified and enhanced America's role in the world, and the lessons learned are still reverberating from the Middle East to North Korea.
