Thailand's prostitution industry has secrets, and there's a lot that bargirls aren't supposed to tell. If customers ask, bargirls have to say that they love their jobs, no one is forcing them, they've don't use drugs, they are tested for diseases, and of course they're over eighteen years old. How else can they answer, especially with a boss watching? The truth is often very different from these answers and Thai smiles, and the truth is seldom realized by tourists to Thailand. We're Not Supposed to Tell You details the gritty reality of Thai sex work, including debt slavery, drug addiction,...

Praise for Pattaya Heat: "IF YOU ENJOY OLD DETECTIVE STORIES, YOU'LL ENJOY THIS." "EXCELLENT BOOK AND A GREAT NEW DETECTIVE!" Welcome to Pattaya City, Thailand.

Emma Hartley’s perfectly planned life implodes somewhere between the airport carousel and a suspiciously aggressive tuk tuk driver.

About five years ago I wrote an e book, “Maybe You Should NOT Move to Thailand” and in it was a chapter titled “Thailand is More Dangerous Than It Appears.” At that time, I said I thought Thailand was a safer country than the USA. Since then it appears to me that Thailand has become a more dangerous place for foreigners. Whether or not this is true, and why or why not this is the case, is not the primary focus of this book.
