There is a storm brewing in the Hong Kong publishing industry, after five people working for a local publisher that sells books critical of China went missing in recent months.

After the most recent disappearance of the fifth person, the issue reached the top of Hong Kong government, which has said they are “highly concerned”, and have promised to press Beijing for answers.
