Sonchai Jitpleecheep

review 1: Like Bangkok Haunts, this one disappointed. Bangkok 8 and Tattoo were fantastic, original stories. Sonchai was an interesting detective and those two stories moved along with creative developments and tidy endings. Haunts was difficult with too much mumbo jumbo thrown into the story and The Godfather was at times boring. This story focused too much on the Buddhism and skyward gazing and not enough on developing the mystery and crime.
review 2: My first entrée into the world of the tortured life of Detective Sanchai Jitpleecheep. "Am I the cleverest and most hard nosed cop on the force? Or, am I the consigliere of Bangkok's most notorious drug lord? Am I worthy of seeking Gautama?" "I miss my wife and son. Will I ever meet them again in this life? Must I w... moreait for another?"Cool stuff. Wittily written. Makes me want to visit Thailand, farang.And maybe give up my addiction to Nordic Noir. Temporarily. less
