The two most difficult days in Bangkok writer Poke Raffertyโs life begin with an emergency visit from Edward Dell, the almost-boyfriend of Pokeโs teenage daughter, Miaow. The boyโs father, Buddy, a late-middle-aged womanizer who has moved to Bangkok for happy hunting, has disappeared, and money is being siphoned out of his bank and credit card accounts.
It soon becomes apparent that Buddy is in the hands of a pair of killers who prey on Bangkokโs โsexpatsโ; when his accounts are empty, heโll be found, like a dozen others before him, floating facedown in a Bangkok canal with a weighted cast on his unbroken leg. His money is almost gone.
Over forty-eight frantic hours, Poke does everything he can to locate Buddy before itโs too late.
