Publisher's Synopsis

Jonathan Harris has a loving wife, Linda, and two children, William, and AnnaLee. He is a prominent Philadelphia business man who owns the majority of the stock of Victor Export and Import Company, which trades on the New York Stock Exhange. His business requires him to do extensive international traveling. In order to get financing for steel beams needed for the construction of the Freedom Tower Condominium, which is to be the tallest building in Philadelphia, he travels to England to meet his friend Harold Dunn, Head Manager of Dover Bank. Thereafter, he travels to Hong Kong with another friend, Marshall Gooding, a highly reputed Professor of Business and Economics at Oxford University. In Hong Kong, Jonathan Meets with his agent, Kim Lee, who is to order the steel beams from Hokyoshi Steel Company in Japan. Before leaving from England to Hong Kong, Jonathan meets Lady Millicent Browckworth, a beautiful English aristocrat, to whom he is drawn, not withstanding his love for his family. When the large order of steel beams reaches the Port of Philadelphia, the beams are to be taken from the ship to the waiting flatbed trucks, to be transported to the Freedom Tower Condominium. The mistakes of an inexperienced tower crane operator reveal that all is not as it seems.
