Hello, Shadowlands : Inside the Meth Fiefdoms, Rebel Hideouts and Bomb-Scarred Party Towns of Southeast Asia

Hello, Shadowlands : Inside the Meth Fiefdoms, Rebel Hideouts and Bomb-Scarred Party Towns of Southeast Asia - Thryft

Eye-opening account of organized crime in Southeast Asia.

Hello, Shadowlands could be a good read for someone interested in learning about the underbelly of Southeast Asia and how organized crime is affecting the region. The book provides a gripping account of the $100 billion trade in narcotics, animals, and people that is taking place in the region, and the human toll that this is having. Author Patrick Winn provides a deep dive into both large and small crime rings, examining how China's rise and America's decline are creating opportunities for transnational syndicates to thrive. In focusing on the human stories on both sides of this crime wave, Winn offers a unique and intimate perspective on an issue that is often ignored.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
