Genre - Mystery
Long-term Bangkok resident Bob Turtledove who is a former New Orleans policeman since retired, but seems to have a knack of finding people. He is approached by the parents of a young Mormon from Utah who has gone missing. What starts out as a missing person ends up in a deadly mission for Bob Turtledove.
The references to Bangkok makes the reader believe they have lived there (whether you have been to Bangkok or not) with a bit of old world charm, and also gives a good understanding of localities and their customs. Regardless of what you read from the media on Bangkok as it is today, this book seems to relate to an era before today and with plenty of charm. The storyline is good with plenty of action, but also a book that has its humour and well worth keeping in your home library.
