From the author of the bestselling, Bangkok Eight, John Burdett, an exotic, intoxicating new novel featuring Sonchai Jitpleecheep, Thai Buddhist detective extraodinaire.

Detective Sonchai Jitpleecheep has seen just about everything on his beat in Bangkok’s crime-riddled District 8. But the video he’s been sent anonymously is something else: it’s a snuff movie, and the person who dies is Damrong, the beautiful woman he once loved and whom he still dreams about.

And there’s more: slayings turn the ensuing investigation into a murder inquiry, and Sonchai into an obsessed and haunted man.

Sonchai’s inquiries follow a dizzying route from his own apartment, where he sleeps next to his pregnant wife while his fantasies deliver him up to Damrong; through the office of his corrupt and worldly wise boss, Captain Vikorn; to the backstreets of Phnom Penh, where street gangs are only the most visible threats; to the gilded rooms of the most exclusive men’s club in Bangkok, whose members will do anything to protect their identities while exploring their darkest fantasies.

Caught in a multi-dimensional web of intrigue and deception, Sonchai confronts the terrifying consequences of a lesson he should have learned long ago. In Bangkok nothing is as it seems…
