Produced by Alan Johns, and David Widger "Tales of Chinatown" by Sax Rohmer is a collection of detective fiction written during the early 20th century. The book dives into the gritty and mysterious underbelly of London's Chinatown, exploring themes of crime, intrigue, and cultural clashes through the perspectives of various characters involved in the shadowy dealings of the notorious Huang Chow and his associates. The opening of the book introduces two characters, Jim Poland and Freddy Cohen, who are engaged in a tense conversation at a public house near Chinatown. Poland suspects Cohen's involvement in the recent death of a Chinaman and warns him about the dangers associated with old Huang Chow, hinting at hidden treasures and a web of crime surrounding the area. The dialogue sets a claustrophobic atmosphere filled with threats and unspoken fears, underlying the tension between the two men as they navigate the underworld's dangerous currents. Chief Inspector Kerry is soon introduced as he investigates the connection between these events and the deaths that plague the community, laying the groundwork for a story that intertwines mystery and crime against a backdrop of cultural intrigue.
