Bangkok 8

by John Burdett

For me, this was like a science fiction novel, because the terrain (both physical and psychological) is so unfamiliar to a Yankee like me.  Buddhist detectives, transvestites, poisonous snakes, corrupt officials, oh my!  The back of the book makes it sound like a kung-fu action movie, but it is much more cerebral, subtle, and funny than I thought it would be.
