The second book in the Litchfield family series finds the mountains and natural gas fields of Turkmenistan acting as the catalyst in these shifting sands. In Japan, a new Prime Minister seeks to make his mark, in order to reclaim his nation’s place in the world. In North Korea, a man considered to be a peacemaker plots and schemes to take power of the South. In China, a civil servant moves his instruments around the world to enable him to challenge the might of the United States. When Sir Thomas Litchfield is forced by the President of the United States to help him bring peace to the world’s longest conflict in Korea little does he know that decisions made long in the past, in the corridors of power are about to bear fruit and bring the world to the brink of oblivion. The Devil’s Playground is a story of passion, conflict, greed and naked ambition that follows both the allies and foes of peace as the reader joins Thomas on his journey to protect those he loves and is charged to lead while he walks the tightrope of keeping both his “masters”, old and new happy in the aftermath of his doomed attempt to revenge the woman he loved all those years ago.
