Harry is on a special mission.
Detective Harry Hole arrives in a steaming hot Bangkok. The
Norwegian ambassador has been found dead in a seedy motel room,
and Harry has been sent to investigate. It's clear that the
Ambassador's family are hiding some secrets of their own, but few
people are willing to talk.
He needs to solve a crime and avoid a scandal.
When Harry lays hands on some incriminating CCTV footage, things
only get more complicated. The man who gave him the tape goes
missing, and Harry realises that failing to solve a murder case
is by no means the only danger that faces the unwary.
But in an unfamiliar city, who can you trust?
