It revolves around Christine Penderecki and her Chinese lover, Dennis Wu, both ghostwriters for a strange, secretive company that sees its lunatic story-telling clients as suckers
The company hires Christine to pose as Lefkowitz, another ghostwriter, who has mysteriously disappeared
As Lefkowitz, she is to help a powerful white supremacist wrestle his anti-Chinese ravings into publishable prose
As she writes, she is drawn into a world of espionage and dangerous half-truths
And she starts to understand the twisted logic her bigoted client lives by, which forces her to undergo a confrontation with her lover and her own prejudices
That leads eventually to another ghostwriter's mysterious disappearance ...
