Christopher G. Moore does an accurate and excellent job of showing Bangkok's daily world and underworld. As a thriller novel, its well crafted and takes unexpected twists. My only issues with the book - more than expected typographical errors and oddly constructed sentences really hamper the flow of the story. Several times I had to read sentences 3 and 4 times over, and ask myself "what does that even mean?" A sort of literary speed bump.
This was a first time read for me of Christopher G, Moore. I'm hooked.
