Description
Resurrection Man is an collection of three short crime mystery novels set in Thailand and based on true events.Â
Seven
An armed robbery goes wrong and some quick thinking is required, two sisters are taken hostage. What seemed like a good idea at the time turns into a nightmare and nothing will be the same again ... for any of them.
Then the bodies start to appear, the gang is starting to self-destruct ... for there is a killer in their midst.
Red Herring
James Cartwright a British businessman posted missing for months is discovered alone, disorientated and confused living in a simple apartment in a run down part of Udon Thani in the Northeast of Thailand. A case for celebration perhaps... it should be. The snag is the Police find him when they respond to the death of a young woman who has just plunged six floors from his apartment window. Is it an accident, suicide or murder? This is the question that the Police want answered ... but James has no answers, none at all, he has lost his tongue or his mind, for he thinks he's five hundred and sixty kilometers away in a five star hotel in Bangkok .... The neighbours though speak of a terrible fight, of shouting, screaming and cursing in Thai and English just before the sudden silence ... then the sickening thud.
Get What You Want
Henry Thompson, is a British retired teacher and he and his wife are highly respected members of the Bangkok ex-pat community. So why suddenly, beyond belief does he up and rob his local bank in bewildering circumstances.
His friends rally around, they believe the stress of him being the only care-giver too his 'troubled' wife has become all too much. The Thai Police though, are not so sympathetic, they are sure they have their man. However despite the evidence piling up against him, a befuddled Henry steadfastly refuses to remember or too confess to his crime.
Moreover, there is something more puzzling, something far more unsettling, for Henry's only friend in the British Consulate.
It is regards a photograph of a mysterious little girl, whose very existence Henry only acknowledges through outrage, tantrum and fury.
