A book about working class in Taiwan

I am close to half way through a book called Dead Women Walking, written by Jennifer Su (who has a degree in journalism). It is about the lives of three women in Taiwan. They belonged to the working class in Taiwan, where there are only about 0.5% Christian. Their lives were surrounded by traditional folk religion, alcoholic husbands, domestic violence and poverty. In one case, the woman was regularly raped, and then she became a sex worker. My understanding is that later in their lives they all became Christians. (I haven't got to that part of the book yet.) If you are looking for a book to read, this would be a good one.
