Jennifer's Review
The Banker and the Dragon is a really good book. I liked it. 
It's about a banker from Australia who meets up with a woman who wants to save her country(China) from the ruler tyrant Jing Xi. He has created a new virus named Hei Bai, which is worse than the coronavirus. This happens in 2021. 
Together they are helped by a wealthy man who wants to become even wealthier by having the secretary for Jing kill him. He then offers a cure that will kill the virus, but not without serious consequence. 
What happens to China and the people that wreaked havoc? Read on to find out.
