Inside
a secluded, lush estate located on the edge of Pattaya,
an eccentric Englishman’s gardener is found hanged.
Calvino has been hired to investigate. He finds himself
pulled deep into the shadows of the war against drugs,
into the empire of a local warlord with the trail leading
to a terrorist who has caused Code Orange alerts to
flash across the screen of American intelligence.
In
a story packed with twists and turns, Calvino traces
the links from the gardener’s past to the door
of men with power and influence who have everything
to lose if the mystery of the gardener’s death
is solved.
