Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Truth demands witnesses. Are you ready to testify?Taiwan Case Files - Volume II continues Chang Li Yen's haunting fusion of investigative journalism and literary suspense, unearthing the forgotten crimes and suppressed histories buried in Taiwan's archives. Each story transforms a real unresolved case into a psychological excavation of truth, memory, and conscience-where every discovery opens a darker void beneath.At the heart of this volume stands "Bloodstained Taiyuan: Gunshots in a Silent File," a reconstruction of the 1970 Taiyuan Incident. When journalist-protagonist Chang Chieh-an uncovers his late mentor's secret notebook, he follows a trail through military tribunals, vanished witnesses, and a single missing name on a guard roster that unravels half a century of silence. What begins as an academic inquiry becomes a descent into the ethics of truth itself-an elegy for the era when procedure died and justice died with it.In "The Tainan Blood Case: A Faded Notebook," the narrator inherits his father's unfinished investigation into a 1971 family murder. The deeper he digs, the more he discovers how organized crime, political fear, and bureaucratic indifference erased the truth. Father and son-two generations of reporters-mirror each other across time, both trapped between evidence and erasure. Their parallel notebooks become confessions of futility and devotion: recording as the last act of resistance.Further cases-such as "The Unfinished Puzzle: The Riverside Enigma" and others-extend this anatomy of truth. Dockyard killings, missing files, erased testimonies, and the faint ghosts of Taiwan's martial-law past intertwine with the present-day journalist's relentless pursuit. Each chapter stands alone as a case study in moral corrosion, yet together they form a mosaic of a nation still wrestling with its unspoken wounds.Chang Li Yen writes with the precision of a reporter and the lyricism of a poet. His prose exposes the machinery of power-the courtroom that silences, the record that omits, the news that forgets-while restoring humanity to those consumed by it. Through layered narratives, fictionalized witnesses, and archival fragments, he turns every "unsolved case" into a mirror reflecting the reader's own complicity in forgetting.More than a collection of mysteries, Taiwan Case Files II is an inquiry into the relationship between history and justice, memory and oblivion. It asks: - How much truth can a society endure?- When evidence rots and time distorts, what remains of justice?- And can writing itself become a form of testimony?For readers of historical noir, investigative fiction, and true-crime literature-fans of Memories of Murder, The White Book, or The Tattooer-this volume offers both intellectual rigor and emotional devastation. Each page breathes with the humidity of coastal Taiwan, the rust of forgotten prisons, and the quiet desperation of those who once dared to ask, "Who will care?"About the AuthorChang Li Yen is an investigative journalist turned novelist whose background in Communication Studies informs his distinctive craft-melding factual precision with literary depth. His works dissect Taiwan's modern history through the lens of criminal cases, treating each as a forensic specimen of collective conscience. Critics hail him as "the scalpel that cuts through silence."Key Themes: -Transitional Justice and Martial Law Taiwan-Ethics of Journalism and Memory-Crime, Guilt, and Collective Silence-Father-Son Legacy and Moral Inheritance-The Fragility of Procedure and TruthRichly atmospheric, intellectually fearless, and emotionally piercing, Taiwan Case Files - Volume II transf Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Product Description Truth demands witnesses. Are you ready to testify? In Taiwan Case Files - Volume VII, investigative journalist-turned-novelist Chang Li Yen returns with eleven interwoven stories that peel back the polite skin of modern Taiwan to expose what festers beneath. Each tale is inspired by true events and shaped with surgical precision, where every crime becomes an autopsy of conscience, every death a mirror held to society's decay. Through Chang's unflinching prose, readers confront the places where justice falters, empathy erodes, and the meaning of "truth" is ground between power and guilt. The volume opens with "Nether Pact: The Ghost-Month Classroom," a chilling parable of sexual abuse and institutional betrayal. When a professor's victim dies by suicide and her spirit returns for vengeance, the haunting becomes both supernatural and moral-an indictment of a system that calls predators "clean." The retribution that follows is as meticulous as it is merciless, forcing the living to relive every torment the dead endured. From there, the book descends through Taiwan's layered darkness: "The Knife That Gnaws at the Old" recounts a grandson's drunken rage and the quiet horror of generational neglect in a fishing village where love turns parasitic. "Core-Chip: City Under Siege" explodes into techno-thriller territory, fusing semiconductor espionage, ritualistic killings, and the corrosion of national ambition. Later stories such as "Darknet Lost," "Cuihe Blood Curse," and "Mirror Prison" explore digital sin, occult vengeance, and psychological confinement, forming a lattice of guilt that binds the living and the dead alike.Each case may stand alone, yet together they create a single x-ray of a society anesthetized by progress and haunted by what it refuses to see. Chang's narrative style blends the clinical discipline of reportage with the lyricism of noir. His language gleams like a scalpel: precise, rhythmic, and laced with empathy that cuts deeper than pity. He writes not to glorify evil but to expose the ordinariness of cruelty-the moment a teacher's smile hides predation, a bureaucrat's stamp erases a life, or a grandson's need curdles into murder. Beneath each crime lies a question that resists closure: Who is guilty when everyone looks away? The Book of Shadows, the author's preface, frames the entire series as a "dialogue with time"-a resistance to forgetting. It declares that crime fiction, when grounded in real pain, becomes the final court of memory. For Chang Li Yen, suspense is not a riddle to be solved but a mirror forcing readers to meet their own reflection. "What I write," he confesses, "is not who killed whom, but how we kill ourselves." Across more than four hundred pages, Volume VII continues the Taiwan Case Files of Suspicion saga's evolution from investigative realism to metaphysical indictment. The familiar themes of corrupted institutions, buried trauma, and moral entropy are refined here into a literary anatomy of an island's collective psyche. Ghost stories coexist with courtroom transcripts; folklore bleeds into forensic detail. Each page radiates a slow, terrible beauty-the poetry of evidence and decay. At its core, this book asks a simple, devastating question: when justice fails, does the truth still have a voice? Chang answers by giving that voice to the silenced-the victims, the forgotten, the unnamed-so that their confessions, even whispered through fiction, may disturb our sleep. Readers of Keigo Higashino, Shusaku Endo, or Han Kang will find in Chang Li Yen a kindred craftsman who turns guilt into language and testimony into art. Taiwan Case Files - Volume VII is not merely a crime anthology; it is a moral darkroom where every reader becomes a witness, and every shadow deve Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
