âFor readers who relish noir suspense, it doesn't get much better than this stunning novel."â"The Boston Globe
âIt is an evocative, often bleak, but fascinating view of being at âcross-cultural oddsâ that fuels Chinatown Beat, the successful debut by New York author Henry Chang.ââ"South Florida Sun-Sentinel
âChinatown Beat is a classic noir, filled with longing, violence,! and that uniquely urban melancholy, but it also brings something new to the table, a loving specificity of a people and place, the multicultures of New Yorkâs Chinatown, that has rarely if ever been encountered in fiction before. A real discovery.ââ"Richard Price, author of Freedomland and Clockers
âAn auspicious beginning.ââ"Richmond Times-Dispatch

Then Uncle Four, an elderly leader of the charitable Hip Ching Society and member of the Hong Kong-based Red Circle Triad, is gunned down. To solve these crimes, Jack turns to both modern police methods and an ancient fortuneteller.

From the Hardcover edition.The inspiration for Quentin Tarantino s early films, Fernando Di Leo is the master of garish, intricately plotted, ultra-violent stories about pimps and petty gangsters who perfects the genre with an uncanny accuracy. For the first time digitally restored from the original 35mm negative and remastered in collaboration with the Venice Film Festival, 4 of Fernando Di Leo s masterpieces in one box set which includes: Caliber 9 (Milano Calibro 9, 1972), The Italian Connection (La Mala Ordina, 1972), The Boss (Il Boss, 1973), Rulers Of The City (Padroni della citta, 1976) Now available for the first time on Blu-Ray.Hank's #1-charting (for 10 weeks!) and Grammy-winning album from 1959, finally on CD in the U.S.! Also includes four bonus tracks lifted from his More Music from Peter Gunn: Walkin' Bass; Blue Steel; Spook! , and Blues for Mother's .Ensemble sound was more important than virtuosic, emotive soloing i! n the West Coast style known as "cool" jazz. Henry Mancini too! k a numb er of his cues from that mellow '50s sound when he scored the television crime-drama series, Peter Gunn. This soundtrack CD is full of memorable themes, lush textures, and succinct solos played by big band veterans. Vibraphonist Victor Feldman is heavily featured and his instrument's soft, ringing tone plays a key role here. Occasionally Mancini slips into turning out indistinctive, generic pieces, and soundtrack-composer-to-be John Williams's piano playing can be plinky and stiff. But other than that, this is top-notch TV soundtrack fare, highlighted by the irresistible, proto-surf-rock theme song. Instead of just filling up digital space, the bonus tracks really are a valuable addition. A growling trombone solo on "Walkin' Bass" and Shelly Manne's swinging drum work are just a couple of the reasons why. --Fred CisternaHENRY 2:MASK OF SANITY - DVD MovieHenry's Crime Reproduction Poster Print Style A 11 x 17 Inches - 28cm x 44cm
