Title: Well crafted thriller written with great passion.
Product review: Mr. Cannell writes with great passion, and that distinguishes him from most of the other thriller writers around. This book also shows that he has thoroughly researched its subject: Asian gangs and their roots in Hong Kong. He also takes chances that most other thriller writers wouldn't take, such as making one of his main characters an African American female. Somehow, he is able to get inside characters who are completely different in background from himself, and make them believable. The action scenes in this book are riveting and violent without being gratuitous. The overall premise is timely and genuinely scary.
