In 2014, at a mayors' conference in Washington DC, an older Midwestern mayor introduced a young Chinese woman on his arm as his girlfriend. He seemed genuinely smitten. She was beautiful, attentive, and at least two decades younger than him.

What none of them knew was that the FBI already had eyes on the glamorous young lady. She had been photographed meeting repeatedly with a suspected Chinese intelligence officer at the San Francisco consulate.

Her name was Christine Fang, and she was sent to build relationships with up-and-coming American politicians as part of a long-term Chinese influence campaign. This she did for 5 years, penetrating the heart of Silicon Valley.

While FBI investigators waited for concrete evidence before moving in, they allowed Christine Fang to slip through their fingers

This is the story of Fang Fang, the Chinese honeytrap who seduced America.
