VICE CITY STORIES

Peter Hui, star of the new biography King Hui: The Man Who Owned All the Opium in Hong Kong, was a playboy and casino operator. On top of this, he was an armed robber, triad associate, corrupt cop, kung fu fighter, political prisoner and spy. Find out about ‘King’ Hui’s accounts of the Japanese invasion and occupation of HK, the murder of Lee Hysan, the communist takeover of Guangzhou and many other important 20th century events in Jonathan Chamberlain’s “true story [that] reads like a novel. A cracking read” (HK personality David Tang Wing-cheung). We have 5 signed copies of the book up for anyone wanting to soak in this unique viewpoint of the Japanese occupation, just answer this question: Opium is processed chemically to produce another very well known and dangerous illegal drug – what is this drug called?
