About this listen

Sonchai Jitpleecheep is back! The Royal Thai Police detective, our wily, sometimes madly bold guide through the author's previous acclaimed Bangkok novels, is this time on the trail of an American conspiracy and once again - and closer than ever - on the trail of his American father.

With Sonchai on this case is the young female inspector, Krom. Like Sonchai, she's an outsider on the police force, but unlike him she is socially savvy and a technological prodigy. When they're called to a demonstration - in the midst of a typhoon - of the deadly, superhuman strength of an American man who is seemingly controlled by a CIA operative, they have no idea what they're actually witnessing or why. Their reliably obtuse and unequivocally crooked boss, Colonel Vikorn, explains some of it, but the most telling questions remain unanswered: Could the Americans have figured out a way to create a physically and psychologically enhanced super soldier? Are they testing him - or it - on Thai soil? And why is everyone, from the Bangkok police to the international community, so eager to turn a blind eye?

Big Bad Book

If you want to keep the image of J.Burdett as a masterpiece writer of these Bangkok series, then skip this one completely. Utter useless story line with no direction. the entire book is just one conversation jumping into another one where in almost all scenarios the other guys just blurts out everything about their life w/o our guy Sonchai even asking for anything. i am just too irrititated to even write this review properly.
Tried so hard but could not finish this.
Just stick to previous books if you like this series.
