Across The Border

Definitely a must-read. Ann Reed - author. Across the Border is fascinating, no question, using well-developed and interesting characters in an exotic setting, with a surprising but also satisfying outcome. Surely one of the great crime fiction stories of all time. Kate Baldwin - author. Like its predecessor Ice, Across the Border is a crime story like no other. Highly recommended! - Michael Garrick, authorDetective-Sergeant Shui Nuan goes undercover in the nightclubs of her home city, Guangzhou China, to be recruited by triad gangs manufacturing the drug methamphetamine or ice.
Only Nuan doesn't realise her taskforce is infiltrated by the gang she's investigating. Ma Thi Mai is a young Vietnamese girl abducted into China, first into a fake marriage before being swallowed by organised crime in Guangzhou. Mai despairs of her future as much as Nuan is unaware of the danger she's in. Police investigations never travel in straight lines, especially when an undercover operation turns deadly and a teenage girl is trafficked across the border.
