A Devil in Hong Kong by David Harris Lang Day 7 of the Monster Mash Book Blitz Countdown Event




David Harris Lang, a current resident of Hong Kong, has lived and worked in Asia much of his life. Besides being a prolific author of Asian-based thrillers, he is an international architect who brings an indelible sense of place’ to his writing as well as a deep understanding of Asian cultures, locales, and customs. His vivid fight scenes come from a life-long practice of the martial arts. A Devil in Hong Kong is David Lang’s third book.
Q&A With the Author: 
What is the best vacation you ever went on?

We visit Maui a lot as one of my daughters lives there. Clean ocean, clean air, beautiful beaches, together with family. I always have a memorable time.
How do you come up with character names?
One great source of names for me is the name badges on airline employees (I fly a lot). For example, in ‘A Devil In Hong Kong’ there is a character named Saffron Lam. Someone with that name works for Cathay Pacific.

On a snowy day in the year 889, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had an epiphany: he was not immortal. His jade carver created the most beautiful jade burial suit in history, finishing just three weeks before the Han Emperor died. When the priceless two-thousand-year-old jade burial suit suddenly goes missing in modern Hong Kong, a brutal competition to find it ensues between rival Chinese, Burmese, and Japanese factions. As they battle for the priceless artifact, a psychotic killer with a Maori tattoo on his face surfaces leaving a trail of dismembered corpses strung together like traditional Burmese puppets. Detectives Ian Hamilton and Angela Cheung follow a trail of hacked bodies and terror through contemporary Hong Kong in their search for the killer.
