A missing friend in Pattaya

Set in Pattaya, the novel follows Mike Moran, an American expatriate whose life there has settled into heavy drinking and casual encounters. When his drinking companion disappears, Moran searches across the city, moving between tourist districts and less-visible backstreets as the trail grows harder to follow. The investigation brings him into contact with other expatriates and bar workers, while his own struggles and the different rhythms of life around him complicate the search. Travel setting and missing-person mystery meet in a portrait of a man pushed to act after building a life he had thought he could accept.

Book overview

Mike Moran drank himself out of a promising career and a good marriage back in the States, only to wash up in Pattaya - Thailand's most electric city, where the neon never sleeps and neither does he. He's built a life out of booze and cheap sexual encounters, and he's fine with that. Or he was.
When his best drinking buddy goes missing, Moran is forced to sober up just enough to look for him - tracing his last known steps through the city's glittering tourist strips and the dingy backstreets tourists never see. Hounded by his own demons at every turn, he wades through reckless expats, double-dealing bar girls, and the maddening, unhurried pace of Thai culture, all while the trail keeps going cold.
With the local authorities in no hurry to help and his options running out, Moran starts taking matters into his own hands.
