The Triads, or the Chinese mafia, are far more than just a criminal organization-they are a legend with roots that stretch back centuries to the Ming Dynasty, when rebels fought against imperial forces. The modern Triads of Hong Kong emerged from various secret societies, initially formed to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming. These societies later evolved into anti-communist organizations, eventually being driven to Taiwan and Hong Kong due to political turmoil. In the 20th century, the Triads transformed into a powerful criminal empire, exerting significant influence on the region's social fabric and extending their reach globally.

But what are the Triads today? How are they structured, and what do they do? What role does the Chinese mafia play in contemporary Hong Kong? And how are they connected to global criminal networks like the Mexican cartels? These and many other questions are explored in our book.

Prepare to delve into a world of secrets, intrigue, and harsh realities, where power and influence intertwine with crime and corruption. Discover the fascinating and terrifying history of the Triads, a story that continues to shape the global criminal landscape. This book is your comprehensive guide to the gripping world of the Chinese mafia, one that will leave a lasting impression.
