A Raymond Chandleresque novel of dark irony, mystery and intrigue set in Hong Kong featuring a character previously encountered in Adams' celebrated GREAT HONG KONG SEX NOVEL, the inimitable failed barrister Nigel Trelford, and sacked police inspector Larry Snowdon. Together they run a down-at-heel detective agency. Crazy, young, rich, beautiful Adeline Chow has a secret, a deadly secret and three or six dead bodies later, Trelford finds out what it is. Beautifully written and a delight for fans of Chandler, Hong Kong and a good detective story. "George Adams gives readers the real-life side of Hong Kong" EASTERN EXPRESS.
