The hazy and often hilarious memories of work and play in the heartstopping beauty and pulse-racing commercialism of the colony is suddenly flooded by darker memories of tragedy and loss, although Barnes, the most optimistic and delightful of authors, pulls the reader through to a warmly satisfying conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simon Barnes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47284846330005,"sku":"9780007483242","price":5.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/3175\/9509\/files\/9780007483242.jpg?v=1776992083","url":"https:\/\/harpercollins.com.au\/products\/9780007483242_hong-kong-belongers","provider":"HarperCollins AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
