She discovers that the job is much more complicated than perfect stitches and even hems. San Francisco has a dark side, one where a powerful underground organization-- the criminal tong-- brings Chinese young women to America to sell them as slaves. With the help of Chinese interpreters and the Chinatown police squad, Cameron becomes a tireless social reformer to stop the abominable slave and prostitution trade. Mei Lien believes she is sailing to the "Gold Mountain" in America to become the wife of a rich Chinese man. Instead she finds herself sold into prostitution: beaten, starved, and forced into an opium addiction. Will the mission home give her hope for a new life? -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Aiea Public Library Adult Fiction Moore   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult Fiction Moore   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Moore   Missing Inventory   Add Copy to MyList CLOSED TEMPORARILY: Honokaa Public Library Adult Fiction Moore Historical Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Fiction Moore   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order     in Processing   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Fiction Moore   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Fiction Moore   Checked out 06/07/2024 Add Copy to MyList Keaau P/S Library Adult Fiction Moore Historical Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Acquisitions --- On Order     in Processing   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 3 Next
