Best Crime Writer In Thailand?

[penkrew]

So who is your favourite crime writer in Thailand? Jake Needham, Christopher G Moore and Stephen Leather are pretty high on my list. I think I’d give the nod to Leather as his characters seem more three-dimensional, Moore’s characters seem more clichéd at times.

Am always impressed how foreign investigators manage to infiltrate Thai organizations, when I’m pretty sure they’d be shot or arrested if they tried the same in real life.

Nevertheless, I saw this story onforeign investigatorsand it seems there are a few private eyes around. Liked the one story about an old grandfather who’d gone missing in Thailand. His family hired help to see where he was, and turns out he was living large in a gay hotel with a raft of boyfriends! Sometimes real life is so much better than fiction…
