About The Informer: An Asian Thriller (A Sam Steadings Adventure)
Another cracking tale of Hong Kong mayhem set in the 1980s Brilliant, so true to life Hong Kong, 1990, and British expat Sam Steadings is establishing himself as a junior inspector after completing 36 weeks of training as a Probationary Inspector at the Royal Hong Kong Police Training School little more than a year earlier. Keen as mustard after recovering from injury and eager to make a difference, Sam is desperate to get back to the frontline. Denied the comfort of a return to his team, Sam is thrust into an unfamiliar solo role where he’s required to live off his wits like never before as he faces devious traffickers, fierce internal politics and the stench of police corruption. This tense thriller is the sixth in the series following The Division, The District, The Team, The Camp and The Body. The Informer sees Sam deployed undercover in Chungking Mansions, the seedy underbelly of Tsim Sha Tsui, where backpackers congregate and petty criminals thrive, as he strives to root out Western drug traffickers, impress his ambitious district commander, and lay the foundations for his future career.
