Hong Kong Noir
Fifteen True Tales from the Dark Side of the City
Description:... Hong Kong pathologist Feng Chi-shun once owned a dive bar in Kowloon City: a rough part of town which was home to the Sun Yee On triad gang. During that time, he heard a lot of stories. How about the street sleeper who was a millionaire, or the man who chose to end it all in Chungking Mansions? Do you want to know the details of the gruesome Hello kitty murder, or what the taxi driver from hell did to his passengers? How about Elvis of the Orient, the ancient movie star who fooled hundreds of people for his final performance, or the student who stumbled into the 1967 riots and entered the world of girlie bars? And what was the truth about the girl with the eagle tattoo? The 15 stories in Hong Kong Noir offer a glimpse of what happens in the shadows.
