I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

Chinatown BeatChinatown Beat by Henry Chang

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


This was a Free Friday selection in 2010, and it introduced me to the noir writing of Henry Chang. I did have some trouble in the beginning as I was confused between Johnny and Jack for the beginning, short scenes jump quickly. Once, I got the characters firmly in mind, the story is concerned with how can this police officer bring criminals to justice in Chinatown.

This book is no longer free from Barnes and Noble. It is entertaining for readers of noir detective novels.
