Vincent Calvino Series
“If
there’s a new book by Christopher G. Moore, the Bangkok-based
Canadian author, I’ll read that, particularly if it’s
a Calvino private eye one. His novels, set among louche
expatriates in a semi-criminal nocturnal demi-monde,
managed to put Bangkok into a context for me when I
was spending time in S.E. Asia. He leads you into hidden
establishments and constructs, some palatial, some mean
hovels in hidden side-streets, to which only a cat could
find its way and that by accident.” —Peter Stark,Quarterly Review
