In this thrilling panorama of real-life events, Patrick Radden Keefe investigates a secret world run by a surprising criminal: a charismatic middle-aged grandmother, who from a tiny noodle shop in New York's Chinatown managed a multi-million dollar business smuggling people. Keefe reveals the inner workings of Sister Ping's complex empire and recounts the decade-long FBI investigation that eventually brought her down. He follows an often incompetent and sometimes corrupt INS as it pursues desperate immigrants risking everything to come to America, and along the way, he paints a stunning portrait of a generation of illegal immigrants and the intricate underground economy that sustains and exploits them. Grand in scope yet propulsive in narrative force, The Snakehead is both a kaleidoscopic crime story and a brilliant exploration of the ironies of immigration in America.Binding Type: Paperback

Great Shelves Exspecially For the Money
Color: Grey, Size: 16.5 x 6.1 x 0.59 inches
These shelves are very good. The price is great. and they look great in my granddaughter playroom. They are easy to install, and the instructions are very simple. They are study and the length of them are pretty large compared to others I looked at. They are very sturdy if done right. These were bought for an organization shelf wall from the floor to the ceiling. I bought one box and put them up and since then I have bought two more boxes for the rest of the wall

Attractive and strong shelves.
Color: Dark Carbonized Pine, Size: 16.5 x 6.1 x 0.59 inches
These shelves are not only easy to install, but they look great too. I made a Mimi bar and these were strong enough to hold My liqueurs as well as glasses.

It works great
Color: Brown, Size: 16.5 x 6.1 x 0.59 inches, Color: Brown, Size: 16.5 x 6.1 x 0.59 inches
This was everything I needed. And it was exactly as described. And I really like the multiple ways that the brackets can be used. Good product. And a very good price.

Read the sizes
Color: Black, Size: 16.5 x 6.1 x 0.59 inches
These look bigger and wider in the photos, but they are small, so read the measurements before buying.
They are not real wood but they are sturdy and look great on my wall! They are easy to put together also. I love them!

Such a good price!
Color: Dark Carbonized Pine, Size: 16.5 x 6.1 x 0.59 inches
Love them! They are so cute, couple notes. The wood doesn’t come with pre drilled pilot holes for attaching the brackets so you will need a drill/drillbits. It is real wood which impressed me, but outside tools definitely required. Including a level!! The “level” they offer is indeed a bubble in liquid, but it’s about an inch long, 1/2in wide and a cylinder so probably the most useless, cutest level I’ve seen in my life. Otherwise great! They hold exactly what I need.
