THE CASE OF THE VANISHING CONMAN an absolutely gripping, escapist murder mystery

A crime boss. His wife. His mistress. And a writer stirring up trouble.

In a city where people don't trust the police, Vijay is a man you can turn to for the truth.

When an author is shot in the leg by a masked gunman, everyone thinks the subject of his new book, the notorious Khun Pleum, is responsible.

Bangkok crime boss Pleum hires translator-turned-detective Vijay to help clear his name.

Meanwhile, Pleum's wife finds out from the book that her husband has a young, beautiful mistress. So, without telling Pleum, she also hires Vijay.

Vijay really needs the money, so he takes on both jobs.

Then the book's publisher is murdered.

Vijay's caught in the middle of a very dangerous game. He'll need to keep his wits about him just to stay alive.
