Generally, I'm not a dark story kind of guy, but I liked the 'noir' style.

Poor guy, his plan was doomed from the start.

Your Thai thrillers are all awesome, Colin. You have mastered the craft of local color. But in this particular story, you reminded me of the heat! Oh my, the heat! I worked in Bangkok for 7 years and everything about it was great, except for one thing, the heat and humidity. It was suffocating and crippling. You captured it here and reminded me of it. Cheers.

Alex, thank you. Luckily, I live by the beach in Hua Hin. Haha

The intensity you power these stories with is enthralling. The local knowledge you bring makes them exotic but also universal. More great work!

Not true, all made up. That said, we do get some clowns here, haha.
