Book excerpt: Beyond the Comfort Zone, set in Yunnan province, China, and in Thailand, concludes the Laney and Cade Trilogy, Journeys Through Scenic Chaos. Convinced by their longtime friend, Evelyn Mc Duff, to join a tour through minority villages near Lijiang, Laney and Cade soon find themselves on separate paths. Laney stays in Lijiang to give moral support to the aunt of a young tour guide who has gone missing. Once again, Laney's helpful nature puts her in danger. Cade and a friend pursue a man they suspect of having bilked them out of the money they have invested to promote his small hotels. An American expatriate, a former scholar now propelled by greed and a desire for vengeance against a former lover, links Laney and Cade and their associates to a scheme that attracts the attention of a government agent and causes Cade to face arrest unless he helps to apprehend the perpetrator of the "best sleazy business of the day."
