Angel Dust
ANGEL DUST (Book I of the San Francisco Police Chronicles), from Shisei-Do Publications and author Hayato Tokugawa, a retired cop who knows the streets of San Francisco like few men do. San Francisco December 24, 1972 - it's Christmas Eve and a rookie San Francisco police officer, brash, strongly independent, and headstrong, under the watchful eyes of a veteran Field Training Officer, is about to be thrust onto the mean streets of the city's infamous Tenderloin District, home to the scum of San Francisco: petty thieves, burglars, thugs, robbers, pimps, prostitutes, pickpockets, drug addicts, and just plain drunks; not to mention every kind of perverted freak, crackpot, eccentric, and nutcase one could possibly imagine - and some that no one thus far knows about. The streets are dirty, the buildings old and foul, garbage lines the gutters and alleys, and everything smells of stale beer, vomit, urine, and feces. It's a holiday playground for rats and the other vermin of the city. Originally an extremely popular serial first published in Japan, these are real stories of real people who lived, worked and sometimes died on the streets of San Francisco, and the maturing of a tough, audacious, sometimes impertinent young police officer as he faces violent crime and drugs on the streets of the Tenderloin and Chinatown with a near tragic ending.
