For those of you who like organized-crime stories and cases from the Far East, this work by Peter Chin is due out January 21st. Documents the exploits of a Chinese mob boss, which is something you hardly ever get to read about here in the USA.

They were the most powerful gang in Chinatown. Like the notorious crime families of the Italian Mob, the Asian youth gang known as the Ghost Shadows carved out their own territory in New York’s underworld and ruled those streets for decades. Its leader Peter Chin, a young immigrant from the outskirts of Hong Kong, not only found a new family among his fellow gang members, he became one of the two most powerful men in Chinatown’s history at that time. He even straddled the line between the city’s Asian Mob and the Italian Mafia, adopted as a “godson� of a high-ranking member of the Genovese crime family. Eventually it all came crashing down—when Chin and twenty-four other Ghost Shadows were indicted and imprisoned for racketeering under the RICO Act. But throughout his twenty years in prison, and even since his release, Chin has kept his code of silence . . .

Until now.
