Eastern Shadows - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

"A gripping, atmospheric mystery that plunges readers deep into Thailand's underworld." - NewInBooks.com

A young woman vanishes while exploring her roots in Thailand.

She left on her own. She posts on social media. "I'm safe," she claims.

But her mother doesn't buy it. Neither do her friends.

What really happened to her? And where is she now?

Enter Shane Morris, a struggling journalist who once called Thailand home. He speaks the language. He knows the culture. But he's still just an outsider, sent to unravel an intricate web of rumors and lies.

Navigating a land of corrupt officials, seedy motels, and ancient temples, Shane is pulled into the heart of Thailand's shadowy underbelly. With each step toward the truth, he draws the attention of Kittisak Wanchai, a real-estate tycoon with criminal ties and a secret: he's the missing woman's father.

From the neon-soaked streets of Bangkok to the sacred shrines of the north, Shane is forced to confront the darkest parts of himself, and his past, to put the pieces together.

Surrounded on all sides by corruption and deceit, Shane's world will be stripped bare and he'll be left with a devastating choice: loyalty to the living, or devotion to the dead.
