Through detailed analysis of their criminal trajectories, shifting notions of respectability, and roles within the underground employment and arrest avoidance markets, the book uncovers how older drug-using triads experience gradual exclusion from the criminal world. It highlights the complex dynamics of respect, social status, and survival strategies, illustrating how these men oscillate between persistence and desistance amid structural constraints.
