Description: No Stock Photos! We photograph every item. spine creasing, edge wear, cover creases; Behind the bamboo curtains, the hordes of hungry tourists, the spicy aromas of exotic foods, and the inevitable laundries that are the outer trappings of Chinatown, lurks the organization of silent evil. It was one man--the man at the top--who controlled the restaurants and the laundries and the gambling dens, the vice rings, real estate scams and protection rackets. The long arm of the Tongs reached far into the government of the city of San Francisco...and the corporate boardrooms of the country.This is the world of Peter Ling, a young rebel, who had murdered his father's assassin and was now out of prison, gunning for the man who had ordered his father's murder. But mostly, it is the story of William Sin, called the kai yee, the benevolent protector, who had risen to the top with an ice pick in his hand. Now, as chairman of the Pacific Investments Corporation and the Godfather of Chinatown, the kai yee had only to lift his finger quietly, and the deadly battle for control of these American streets would begin.
