Synopsis "Eating Smoke: One Man'S Descent Into Crystal Meth Psychosis in Hong Kong'S Triad Heartland: 1 (in English)"
'This year's best book.' - Time OutChris Thrall left the Royal Marine Commandos to find fortune in Hong Kong, but following a bizarre series of jobs ended up homeless and in psychosis from crystal meth addiction.He began working for the 14K, a vicious Hong Kong crime syndicate, as a nightclub doorman in the Wan Chai red-light district, where he uncovered a vast global conspiracy and the ‘Foreign Triad’ – a secretive expat clique in cahoots with the Chinese gangs.Alone and confused in the neon glare of Hong Kong’s seedy backstreets, Chris was forced to survive in the world’s most unforgiving city, hooked on the world’s most dangerous drug ...Engaging, honest and full of Chris’s irrepressible humour, this remarkable memoir combines gripping storytelling with brooding menace as the Triads begin to cast their shadow over him. The result is a truly psychotic urban nightmare.‘A COLOURFUL CAST FROM THE SEWERS OF HONG KONG.’ - Loaded'Thrall’s true story evokes Gregory David Roberts’ Shantaram and Alex Garland’s The Beach.' - Shanghai Talk Magazine'Exemplary pacing, completely engaging tone, wealth of winning detail. Thrall uses such verve, enthusiasm and faultless comic timing that it is hard not to be swept along.' - South China Morning Post'There are inspirational life stories and then there is Chris Thrall's. Read at your own risk.' - Adrian Simon, author of Milk-Blood and son of Warren Fellows, Damage Done
