Hardback, 1st edn. A book detailing the burgeoning crime boom that threatens Western society. Delving into the origins of the Triads and their spread across the world, the author takes the reader through the tangled web of oaths, rituals and philosophies which structure the Triad network. With the help from police forces across Britain, he describes many crimes which they have uncovered but cannot bring to court because fear has silenced the witnesses. Most importantly, he analyses this extraordinary criminal sect's over-riding obsession with 'saving face', a principle upon which some of the most horrendous and inexplicable crimes have been committed. A startling and revealing book. With Appendices and Index. 179pp. 8vo. h/back. F. in Vg+ dw.
