The launch of a brand new series by the internationally
bestselling, critically acclaimed author of "The Coroner's Lunch"""
With worldwide critical acclaim, Colin Cotterill is one of the most
highly regarded "cult favorite" crime writers today. Now, with this
new series, Cotterill is poised to break into the mainstream. Set
in present day rural Thailand, Cotterill is as sharp and witty, yet
more engaging and charming, than ever before.
Jimm Juree was a crime reporter for the "Chiang Mai Daily Mail
"with a somewhat eccentric family--a mother who might be drifting
mentally; a grandfather--a retired cop--who rarely talks; a younger
brother obsessed with body-building, and a transgendered, former
beauty pageant queen, former older brother. When Jimm is forced to
follow her family to a rural village on the coast of Southern
Thailand, she's convinced her career--maybe her life--is over. So
when a van containing the skeletal remains of two hippies, one of
them wearing a hat, is inexplicably unearthed in a local farmer's
field, Jimm is thrilled. Shortly thereafter an abbot at a local
Buddhist temple is viciously murdered, with the temple's monk and
nun the only suspects.
Suddenly Jimm's new life becomes somewhat more promising--and a
lot more deadly. And if Jimm is to make the most of this
opportunity, and unravel the mysteries that underlie these
inexplicable events, it will take luck, perseverance, and the help
of her entire family. One of "Library Journal"'s Best Mystery Books
of 2011
