An expat detective navigates through seamy, steamy Bangkok in this
novel in the international bestselling and Shamus Award–winning
series. When PI Vincent Calvino’s surveillance of a drug piracy
ring ends in definitive video evidence, it looks like the fortunes of
the American expatriate and disbarred lawyer are about to turn. But
when Calvino’s client dies of a heart attack, and he finds the body
of a murdered massage girl downstairs, the Thai authorities get
suspicious of the farang who was in the wrong place at the wrong
time . . . twice. To make matters worse, with the dead man
unlikely to pay, Calvino is forced to take on a job he doesn’t want,
trailing the spouses of three expat housewives who have been rattled
by “The Risk of Infidelity Index,” a handbook that ranks Bangkok
as the city where men are most likely to stray. Unfortunately for
Calvino, jealous wives tend to be unhappy, regardless of the results,
and drug pirates aren’t the type to play nice . . .
“Underneath Bangkok society is a deeply encrusted demiworld of hope,
despair, corruption, and courage that Moore . . . paints with
maestrolike Dickensian strokes.” —The Seattle Times “A
terrific character . . . A terrific writer.” —T. Jefferson
