Text Box: “Chinatown Beat is classic noir, filled with longing, violence, and that uniquely urban melancholy, but it also brings something new to the table, a loving specificity of a people and place; the multicultures of New York’s Chinatown, that has rarely if ever been encountered in fiction before. A real discovery.”  —Richard Price, author of Bloodbrothers and Clockers.

Text Box: "A dramatic evocation of the exotic. . . . More rewarding than a trip to Chinatown." —Qin Xiaolong, author of Death of a Red Heroine

Reviews

“Here's a dark slice of New York's Chinatown that most of us have probably never seen. Henry Chang takes us on an unforgettable guided tour of its lower depths.... In a field awash with pallid noir thrillers, this one is the real thing. A genuine winner."

—Herbert H. Lieberman, author of

City of the Dead and Shadow Dancers
