Description
What if international espionage were driven by chaos instead of control?
When Don Kee Dong sets out to track the elusive Phillip Mihol, a routine pursuit spirals into a wildly unpredictable adventure that leads to Budapest, where a shadowy queer society known only as "HO" pulls strings from behind the scenes. As shifting alliances, eccentric power players, and dangerous distractions collide, Dong finds himself caught in a world where nothing is quite what it seems and no one can be trusted.
The Misadventures of Don Kee Dong & Phillip Mihol is an irreverent LGBTQ+ spy satire that blends action, humor, queer romance, and international intrigue into a fast-paced adventure. Perfect for readers who enjoy unconventional espionage stories, sharp satire, and larger-than-life characters, it is the first installment in Gareth Carter's International Men of Mystery series.
