Overview
Moving between New York, China and Taiwan, Immortal in Splashed Ink is an international thriller about ordinary people drawn into a global plot involving powerful players and worldwide repercussions. NYU science professor Jack Cedar is stunned to be accused of planning to kidnap his own children and served with a restraining order that bars him from leaving the country to deliver an important lecture to a prestigious international science federation. He furiously confronts Aruba Jones, the experienced and savvy divorce lawyer who prepared the legal papers, claiming that he has never been married, has no children and has never even heard of Aimee Cedar, the enigmatic woman claiming to be his wife. When Aimee vanishes, and Jack and Aruba become suspects in a deadly terrorist incident, the unlikely pair are thrown together in a desperate effort to unravel the bizarre chain of events that has ensnared them. Across the world, renowned Chinese scientist and high-ranking Communist Party member, Dr. Pao Den Chin, identifies scientific evidence of immense global importance. When the Communist Party prohibits investigation of his groundbreaking discovery and uses brutal methods to eradicate all evidence of it, the melancholy and introspective Den Chin conceives a plan to ensure that his research will continue. These disparate characters become intertwined in an exciting international intrigue that involves Chinese spies imbedded at U.S. universities, the tenuous status of Taiwan, the role of the World Health Organization and deadly aspects of mining Rare Earth Elements.
