Straw Dogs

Two weeks before China Summit II in June, 1998, a Chinese secret service agent, while fleeing from his American counterparts, accidentally plunges to his death from a window in the presidential bathroom after erroneously decapitating President Bill Clinton's body double during a covert White House break in. The break in was sponsored by a secret Chinese Communist hard-line organization named the "Rose flower Committee" which was founded during China's Cultural Revolution by Madame Mao and a young Chinese officer, Tung Yuk-Kai who had become a Major General by 1998.

Disgruntled at America's increasing influence in present day China, the Rose flower Committee had sponsored the break in to discredit the then Chinese President Jiang Zemin. Intensive investigations are quietly launched into the incident on both the American and Chinese sides; publicly, the two governments trade tackles over human rights. Desperate to cover its tracks, the Rose flower Committee implements its most daring mission - an attempted poison gas bombing of the Great Hall of the People in Beijing during a state dinner held in honour of the visiting President Clinton and his wife, a dinner scheduled to have in attendance all of China's top political and economic leaders.

"Straw Dogs" is a tragicomic account of the attempted bombing and its fallout. It is narrated by Shola Dina, a New York-based Nigerian emigre who gets caught up in the intricate web of the Rose flower Committee's plot when he is framed for the murder of an American movie director who unwittingly stumbled upon a tell-tale video recording of a meeting Tung had with a mysterious financial backer. The story has supporting cast of disgruntled angels, celebrities, bumbling secret agents, and the double A, S, an organization which actively seeks United States constitutional guarantee of the rights of "autosexuals" (a word coined by the double A, S which covers all individuals whose sexual preference is masturbation). The antics of the aforementioned parties unwittingly help the Rose flower Committee along in their quest to "free China from America's dominance.""
