Acerca de esta escucha

 Sometimes trouble follows a man.
Sometimes a man has to go looking for it.

The Chinese foreign minister is speaking at a Bangkok university, and there's a diplomatic reception for him before the speech. Like most diplomatic receptions, it's an occasion that's dull as dishwater.

Until it isn't.

The assembled diplomats discover the main doors of the reception hall have been locked. That's when a masked gunman comes in through the back and opens up with a silenced MP5. It's like shooting the proverbial fish in the proverbial barrel. Thirteen dead and nine wounded, including the British ambassador, the Korean ambassador, and the American deputy chief of mission.

The Thai police are overwhelmed, and they ask Interpol to send a homicide investigator to help them. Interpol doesn't investigate homicides, so the regional office asks the Singapore police to lend them an experienced detective.

Inspector Samuel Tay was once a legendary investigator for Singapore's Criminal Investigation Department, but now he's retired. It wasn't exactly voluntary, of course, but that's another story. When he's asked to help the Thai police, he reluctantly agrees. Bangkok's not his favorite place, and the Thai police aren't his favorite people, but retirement is ... well, dull.

Worse, he's getting old, and it's a melancholy feeling to know he's at the end of his career. Just maybe, he thinks, he's got one more big case in him before it really is time to let it all go.

Maybe he does, but there are powerful forces out there that aren't going to let it be this case. If he gets too close to the secret they've hidden behind the slaughter, they've already decided what they'll do.

They'll just kill Samuel Tay, too.


"I don’t know how Needham does it, but he's absolutely nailed what it’s like to be a detective. He's tapped into the true soul of a homicide detective. When I read Needham, I scream, 'Yes, yes, that’s what a detective would do. That’s what I do.' Jake Needham is so good, he makes me want to sing his praises from the rooftops, which I do every chance I get." —Mark Atley, homicide detective, and author of the Tulsa Underworld Series

"You care about justice and about the ways pursuing it gives us difficult decisions to make in our own lives. Thanks for writing such good stuff.” — Michael Tigar, legendary defense attorney and author of SENSING INJUSTICE

“No clichés. No BS. Thrillers written with a wry sense of irony in the mean-streets, fast-car, tough-talk tradition of Elmore Leonard.” — The Edge, Singapore

“Needham’s storytelling is a conversation with the reader” — International Noir Fiction
