That's it as the title says and I thought about it a lot. I've watched some tv-dramams of Hong Kong directors and I adore old Shanghai vibes in the films, so I want to ask you for help here. In general, I'd like to read anything that takes place in the metropoles or connected with the history or people with close ties to them. I'd like to know if there are some authors who are good at the theme too. Published or not. Anything!!! And any genre will do, but modern novels (or books) are fav (no problems with raw). Please-please-please help!
Somehow when I read your title, I'm reminded of 'Transmigrating into the Villain's Sickly Childhood Friend' I read a while ago. The plot is full of gang vs police vibe. My fave part is the interraction of MC and ML.
