An Ethical Chiang Mai Detective Agency Novel
by David Casarett
The Ethical Chiang Mai Detective Agency unravels the mystery surrounding the disappearance of wealthy travellers in Thailand.
As a nurse ethnicist, Ladarat Patalung works to save the lives of her patients, and to make sure the ones she can't save have at least the dignity of a "good death."
But when wealthy foreign travelers start to go missing all across Thailand, Detective Wiriya Mookjai fears that a killer is at large, and turns to Ladarat for help.
The travelers have nothing in common, except for brief stays at a mysterious resort, known as the Magic Grove Hotel.
"Starred Review. "Fans of Alexander McCall Smith's No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series will feel at home with Casarett's stellar sequel to 2016's Murder at the House of Rooster Happiness." Publishers Weekly
"Starred Review. Perfect for those who enjoy Colin Cotterill and Alexander McCall Smith." - Booklist
"Casarett's second Chang Mai Detective Agency novel has oodles of old-fashioned charm, with an easy pace, colorful characters, and a lively curiosity for the interesting details of everyday life. Piquantly titled chapters add a soupcon of comic zest." - Kirkus
