Description
A House Built on Sand takes place in Marrakesh, Morocco some time before the events of A Gilded Cage. Construction mogul Kong Tuo-Kwang is meeting with an architect from rival Hamilton-Lowe, Matthieu Mendola. Mendola intends to leak confidential internal documents to Kong.
Hamilton-Lowe has again contracted the International Contract Agency, this time to eliminate both men and to retrieve the documents before they can be exposed.

"Good afternoon 47. Your destination is Marrakesh, Morocco. Your targets: Kong Tuo-Kwang, head of a Chinese construction conglomerate and Matthieu Mendola, chief architect at Tuo-Kwang's biggest rival, Hamilton-Lowe. Mendola plans to double-cross his employer and leak non-disclosable company documents to Tuo-Kwang, including the confidential offer for a multi-billion dollar real estate project. In response, Hamilton-Lowe has requested that we eliminate both men and send their competition a clear message. Kong has rented a rooftop patio for the meeting, but the location is as of yet unclear. So, track them and eliminate them, and reclaim the documents. Good luck, 47." |
