It was the easiest three grand Nelson Ryan had ever made, but suddenly he realised he was being played for a sucker. A telephone call, seemingly innocent enough, led him to the murder of a Chinese call girl who’d talked too much. It also pitched him straight into the teeming, sordid nightlife of colourful Hong Kong. From now on, Ryan would stick at nothing to get the killer who’d crossed him up …
A mysterious voice from the telephone ; a beautiful Chinese girl shot dead ; a rich old man with a troubled conscience ; a private investigator involved in murder ; a Chinese prostitute who talked too much; and a coffin. There are some of the intriguing ingredients of James Hadley Chase’s splendid thriller. It is definitely a book to keep you awake long after
your bedtime.
