Murder in the Land of Smiles

If you are looking for “Crime and Punishment” or "Pride and Prejudice, this isn’t it. This is a straight up action adventure with a bit of mystery and some bits about Thailand and Thai culture. In the book I write about what inspired the plot. So, I won’t go there now. I have written other ebooks on Amazon. But this is my first adventure into fiction.

I must confess that my real dream here is to see the book made into a movie. I’d sign up. With the right actors, I think it might be a hit. But as you can imagine, it might have problems. Maybe a bit too dark and violent for a Hollywood movie.The ebook has more than a little sex and that might be a red flag for those who are uncomfortable with sexual content. But let’s be real. How many of those are left today? People who write books are always inspired by other authors. For a truly enjoyable read with a fun plot and one of literature’s most lovable characters, I would recommend "Lonesome Dove.” For a mind blowing adventure into literary styling, I’d suggest “Blood Meridian”. And for the most complex and challenging plot and character development, it’s hard to beat “Crime and Punishment". All these books have inspired me. If you are bothered by my verbless sentences, lack of relative clauses and non academic use of commas, take a look at “Blood Meridian." Practically no punctuation and it reads like a well made banana split. Enjoy a short trip into the Land of Smiles.
