Dope: A Story of Chinatown and the Drug Traffic [MultiFormat]
by Sax Rohmer
|
|
This novel may have been prompted in part by the death of Billie Carleton, a London showgirl who performed in the Armistice Victory Celebration at Albert Hall and died in her hotel room later that night of an overdose--presumably opium obtained in Limehouse. The incident led to an official five year long investigation of Chinatown's drug traffic and a new novel from Sax Rohmer which the dustjacket proclaimed to be "based upon actual conditions as they existed in London." 1919
