This epic of Chinatown Noir is the riveting sequel to This
Is a Bust Set in New York City in 1976, Snakes Can’t Run finds NYPD
detective Robert Chow still haunted by the horrors of his
past and relegated to tedious undercover work. When the bodies of two undocumented Chinese men are found
under the Brooklyn Bridge underpass, Chow is drawn into
the case. Most of the officers in his precinct are concerned with a
terrorist group targeting the police, but Chow’s
investigation puts him on the trail of a ring of ruthless
human smugglers who call themselves the snakeheads. As Chow gets closer to solving the murder, dangerous
truths about his own family’s past begin to emerge. Steeped in retro urban attitude, and ripe with commentary
on minorities’ roles in American society, this gritty
procedural will appeal to fans of George Pelecanos and
S.J. Rozan.
