OverviewImagine a world where the media machine controls, manipulates, and brainwashes the ordinary citizen and there's no way out but to challenge it from within. The Chatterbox Spy is a novel that describes a world that has gone haywire in the media age while following the story of freshman journalist Solomon Woo who finds himself in the center of an international manhunt after breaking a story that captured the wrong kind of attention from Chinese intelligence agency MSS. As Solomon writes a report uncovering China's military capabilities, the MSS initiates a surveillance operation on him that extends across borders and follows the reporter to his hometown Los Angeles. Now Solomon must choose to stand by his journalism integrity or lose his job. Meanwhile, the Tiananman Square hero, Tank Man Zhang Yen Ci goes on the run after his heroic stand that stopped the PLA tanks and escapes to Hong Kong where he meets Solomon's father, a CIA operative, who risks his life to help Zhang flee to the United States. The author of the novel, John Mills Yi, is a former editor and reporter for Taiwan's only independent English newspaper and a freelance writer for Examiner.com writing on the latest topics from China on politics, economy, society and culture.
