Bangkok Gamble:
A Matt Chance Thriller Kidnapping, international trafficking on the dark web, bit coin blackmail by gangster police states, loan sharks, and a monk obsessed with profit and power are all in the mix.
When Matt Chance is asked by a Bangkok gambling kingpin to investigate the kidnapping of his daughter he’s not interested. That is until he learns that his mentor, former Special Forces soldier John Scales, already on the case, has disappeared. On the trail, Matt confronts Jade Lee, an ex-US Army chopper pilot who joins the chase. Their attempt to rescue the girl and capture the monk in charge of the criminal cult appears to be a failure until the CIA joins the picture in the form of Matt’s older brother Rick. Offered the chance to take part in a covert operation in Macau, where the monk has fled, Matt and Jade agree to go. The risk is great, the territory unknown, but it seems the only way to rescue the girls and get the mad monk. Bangkok Gamble has received a 5-star review from Reader's Favorite. |

Stilwell's Long Retreat: Burma 1942
Of all the major commands given to American generals during World War II, that of Joseph “Vinegar Joe” Stilwell in the China-Burma-India Theater of Operations had to involve the most frustrating of reporting and coordination lines.
The Allies—the British military under General Alexander, the Nationalist Chinese forces under Generalissimo Chiang, Kai-shek and the Americans under Lieutenant General Stilwell—were anything but allied in their goals and their approaches to the war with Japan. “Stilwell’s Long Retreat” is the story of how the American general jumped into his many missions with stubborn conviction and, in the face of initial defeat, set an example of leadership that would be a preview of his grit and courage in the eventual victory in Burma. |

Amazon Review:
A good job telling stories of people that you will meet on the Bangkok pool scene. The author also shows good observation and knowledge about Thai cultural details and aspects. The heartbeat of “Bangkok Pool Blues” is the gritty insiders’ story of the people of this night culture and the interplay of the Thai gambling and entertainment scene with a Western style professional pool scene new to Thailand. Bangkok’s growth as an international nexus in all areas is on display in this oft times shadowy night world, with Thai bar owners and night workers mixing with professional and amateur pool players and gamblers from Europe, the Americas, and Asia. The stories of those floating though the scene, Thai and foreign, are documented in detail with gripping black and white photography by Yoon Ki Kim a Korean photographer who lives and works in Bangkok. A look inside “Bangkok Pool Blues” presents the reader a close up view of a scene new to Thailand, and reflects a Thai counter culture that most never see. |
