EATING SMOKE

ONE MAN’S DESCENT INTO CRYSTAL METH PSYCHOSIS IN HONG KONG’S TRIAD HEARTLAND

Chris Thrall

Chris Thrall left the Royal Marine Commandos to find fortune in Hong Kong but following a series of bizarre incidents ended up homeless and in psychosis from crystal meth addiction.

But a man with Chris’s skills doesn’t go unnoticed for long. Soon he starts working for the 14K, one of the most notorious Chinese triad factions. And as the triad begins to cast its shadow over him, he is forced to survive in the world’s most unforgiving city, hooked on the world’s most dangerous drug.

Engaging, honest, yet full of Chris’s irrepressible humour in the face of adversity, this remarkable memoir becomes a truly psychotic urban nightmare.
