Title: Being Chinese would help
Review: So many words and phrases were difficult to remember and/or understand (just forget pronouncing them) with more than one name being used for the same person.Story felt disjointed and characters seemed a little flat. It took me 1-1/2 weeks to get through it; I do try to finish a book to give it a fair chance since someone took the time to write it.Not being familiar with the Chinese underworld and heirarchy, I could only try to keep up. Sometimes I succeeded, sometimes not so much.I did like Detective Jack to a degree (which is probably why I finished the book), but I didn't feel like I learned to know Jack as well as I would have liked. He seemed to be stuck in a hate/love relationship between two cultural worlds, but couldn't quite make both work for him at same time. It does appear at the very end he has made a choice, but I'll have to try a "sample" before I buy the sequel.
