Synopsis
Why have five tourist died. Drug overdose victims or a serial killer? Calvino's nose tells him a serial killer - stalking tourists in Bangkok. The Thai cops, including Colonel Pratt, don't buy his theory. Death threats are made against an LA businessman Calvino has agreed to guard. Is he the next tourist to die in the City of Angels?
In Christopher G. Moore's latest private-eye novel, Vincent Calvino, an American PI, teams with LAPD Officer Jessada Santisak on a bodyguard assignment as hidden forces pull them through swank shopping malls, rundown hotels, the slums of Klong Toey and the bars inside the Comfort Zone.
The Internet world of the Cause whose members flock to the Causeway bars in search of pleasure smashes into the Old World Order, and as the bodies start to be shipped home, the secret of the serial killer is revealed.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. First edition, early or first printing, softcover, Bangkok edition. Condition is Good: covers show moderate wear. Rear cover has old fold. Signed by author on title page along with his signature red 'chop.' No interior writing or vandalism just a lot general reading wear. This is the 6th title in the Calvino series. Please see images of the book you will receive. Notes: for the terminally curious I have prepared a continually evolving bibliography for this bibliographically complex writer. As far as which printing this is - well - hard to say. White Lotus was good about first editions and printings. Heaven Lake Press is less assiduous. This is certainly early if not first. Notes: The chop used is a phonetic spelling of his name.I believe the Thai word for this is ???????? (pronounced thap sap). Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # ABE-1782772381137
