My China Trilogy: Kellie Liang Returns in The China Dilemma
April 18, 2026, A Note from author Timothy Trainer: I’m fortunate to have signed a publishing contract to get The China Dilemma out later this year. Things happen when writing fiction.
Having created Kellie Liang in The China Connection (published in 2023), it was an easy decision to write a second novel with her having a central role in The China Factor (published in 2024).
However, the ending in The China Factor (yes, even I was surprised by the ending) left me scratching my head, asking, well, what happens? Kellie Liang wasn’t done.
In fact, things that cause tension in U.S.-China relations have only gotten more complex, and she continues to find herself mixed up in ways she couldn’t have predicted. If you haven’t read the two previous books, there’s time before The China Dilemma is published.
