Synopsis

A dangerous chase through some of the world's most exotic locales and in the decadence of Hong Kong's underworld... Hong Kong detective Ian Hamilton links the disappearance of Indonesian domestic helpers to the body of a Burmese man found sprawled on the floor of a Wanchai bar. So begins Ian's pursuit of 'The Witch', a dangerous chase through some of the world's most exotic locales; the decadence of Hong Kong's underworld, the steaming jade mines of Myanmar, and the seductive urban labyrinth of Japan. Ian's career, as well as his life, are in jeopardy as he follows The Witch's trail of murder, cannibalism, and international jade smuggling. Will Ian be able to defeat The Witch?

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

David Lang, a current resident of Hong Kong, has lived and worked in Asia much of his life.  His deep understanding of Asian cultures and locales  informs the writing of ‘The Witch of Wanchai,’ where unforgettable characters uncover layers of mystery in the underworlds of Hong Kong, China, Thailand, and Myanmar.  Mr. Lang’s father and grandfather were fur traders living in Tianjin when the Japanese military invaded China in 1937. Their history, which was relayed to David over a lifetime of stories told over plates of herring and glasses of vodka, was the inspiration for his first book, ‘The Journal of Rabbi Levy Wang’, and was the foundation of his natural storytelling skills. http://.davidharrislang-books.com
