**Chasing the Dragon by Jackie Pullinger and Andrew Quicke**
This isn't your typical missionary memoir – it's a gritty, no-holds-barred account of Jackie Pullinger's work in Hong Kong's notorious Walled City. Trading her comfortable English life for the chaos of opium dens and Triad gangs, Pullinger's story reads like fiction but packs the punch of raw reality. She didn't just preach; she rolled up her sleeves and helped heroin addicts kick their habits through prayer and sheer determination.
Perfect for readers who love true stories with serious bite – think social justice warriors, faith explorers, and anyone fascinated by Hong Kong's underbelly. Pullinger's background as a young teacher-turned-urban-missionary makes this autobiography particularly compelling for those questioning conventional life paths.
This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks brings you an inspiring biography that proves one person really can change hundreds of lives.
**Reader Reviews:**
