Summary
Gould, an investigative journalist, secretly recorded an interview with gang leader Wong; the tape provided law enforcement with information leading to his arrest and indictment for large-scale heroin trafficking. When Wong, on a 'family trip', was conveniently reported dead in… an accident in the Philippines, Gould travelled to Macau, the Philippines, and elsewhere on a decade-long chase for proof that Wong was alive. Gould's story also helps illuminate the little-known world of the Triads, a byzantine, diasporic Asian mafia. Some strong language and violence and some descriptions of sex. 2004.
