Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

Inspired writing. Bad Traffic is a honey: suspense that never loses its grip. (Elmore Leonard)

Lewis's aim was to write a book that was 'fast-paced and pulpy with plenty of action'. He has certainly succeeded, but there's more besides - dark comedy, sensitive characterisation and an incisive rendering of the desperation felt by beleaguered strangers in a foreign land. (Laura Wilson Guardian)

An impressive novel set in a milieu hitherto unused in crime fiction. (Marcel Berlins Sunday Times)

Reseña del editor:

Inspector Jian is a Chinese cop from the Siberian borders who thinks he's seen it all. But his search for his missing daughter brings him to the meanest streets he's ever faced - in rural England.

Migrant worker Ding Ming is distressed - his gangmaster's making demands, he owes a lot of money to the snakeheads and no one will tell him where his wife has been taken. Maybe England isn't the `gold mountain' he was promised.....

Two desperate men, uneasy allies in a baffling foreign land, are pitted against a band of ruthless criminals. There's BAD TRAFFIC ahead.
