Description
• The Red Jewel is the sequel to BLOOD DICE and book number two of Frank Julius's four-book Hotel Casino Adventure series.
• The Intertwined Nature of Business, Espionage, and Crime in Post-Soviet Russia: Hotel developer power couple, Eldon and Kimberley's journey through the turbulent period of the new Russian Federation heavily illustrates how legitimate business ventures, particularly in the burgeoning hospitality sector, become entangled with the clandestine activities of intelligence agencies (FSB and potentially remnants of the KGB) and powerful organized crime elements (led by Alexander Mitkin). Viktor Orlov's rise to power is connected to the need for new "laws that the rest of the world can embrace," suggesting a period of transition and potential exploitation of legal vacuums. Sasha Bebchuk's leadership of the FSB involves corporate espionage and the procurement of specialized technology, indicating a blurring of lines between national security and economic gain.
• Eldon and Kimberley's determination to succeed in this volatile climate of corruption offers a compelling glimpse into a world where international business, political intrigue, and brutal criminal enterprises collide. The arrival of these two unflinching Western entrepreneurs with idealistic principles clashes with the harsh realities of post-Soviet Russia, setting the stage for a potentially explosive confrontation. The intertwined fates of the hotel owners, the trafficked women, the FSB, and the Mafia drive the central conflict of the novel. Take this wild ride with Eldon and Kimberley as they navigate through post communism and emerging free enterprise democratic chaos.
