pak fan white powder
this is a fictional story which is set in the hong kong of the 1960s . pak fan white powder or heroin is a way of life for johnny sung and his addict father . the book follows their lives . the author was educated in hong kong before returning to the uk to complete her education so the setting is accurate and the places street addresses and customs are authentic . this book is exciting and sometimes sad but there in a light humour that runs right through . li hawked loudly and spat into the middle of the room . an unsuspecting cockroach paused as the projectile landed in its path surveyed the object decided it could not be eaten and scurried off under the bed in search of a more appetising meal . thats the last of the tea johnny shrugged . ive used those same leaves three times now and i cant squeeze anymore out of them . that bowlful looked like pale green pee good enough for you anyway dont suppose youd know the difference he said to himself .
