Summary

Enjoyable read. 

Doing some volunteer work on weekend and lessen the time available for reading. Want to start reading non-fiction books but got tired and escape to fictional book world instead. 

Harry Hole being sent to Thailand when the ambassador was murdered. 

He found some clues that make it seems the wrong guy was wrongly arrested. 

The clue lead one way and another and it is something that Harry found more troublesome, that there are paedophiles living in Thailand and were not arrested. Thai police were corruptible with  money. 

So would the truth comes out? 

Of course it would. Harry just couldn't help but found the connection and see it is all a series of complicated plots for personal gain.

It is hard to talk about this book as there is so many clues and don't want to spoil the fun. It is a fun read. Really nice seeing Harry single and still working out what he supposed to do with that brilliant detective brain of his. 

An ambassador twas found died with a knife on his back in a sleazy motel room in Thailand.   

Harry Hole was sent to Thailand to investigation and try to delay a scandal.

Harry is doing his best under unusual heat for him. 

Who is he meeting on the day of the murder? 

The suspects list is short as there isn't anyone who stand out as the obvious killer. 

So Harry used his usual tactic to poke around a bit and asking lot of direct, sometimes inappropriate questions. 

Fun read. 

German and english review
First things first: I received this book through NetGalley.

Inhalt: In Bangkok wurde der norwegische Botschafter ermordet. Harry soll die thailändische Polizei unterstützen und taucht tief ein in die Unterwelt einer Stadt, in der Moral und Gesetz keine Rolle spielen. Dabei findet er mehr über den Ermordeten heraus, als seinen Vorgesetzten lieb ist.

Harry Harry Harry.
Er ist ja wirklich eine absolute Katastrophe aber ich hab ihn total ins Herz geschlossen. Außerdem fand ich es schön, dass wir in diesem Teil ein bisschen mehr von ihm und Søs, seiner Schwester gesehen haben, ich will mehr davon. MEHR!!!!

Der Fall an sich war wieder ziemlich heftig aber auch total interessant. Und die Wendungen. Also ich bin ja jetzt erst beim zweiten Band der Reihe, allerdings habe ich jetzt schon eine wichtige Lektion gelernt, TRAUE NIEMANDEN!!!!

Die Erinnerungen an Birgitta haben mich geschafft. Das ist immer noch etwas, dass ich aus dem ersten Teil nicht wirklich verzeihen kann. Also werde ich schon mal garnichts zu diesem Teil und Runa sagen. RUNA.

Summary: When the Norwegian ambassador to Thailand is found dead in a Bangkok brothel, Inspector Harry Hole is dispatched from Oslo to help hush up the case.

But once he arrives Harry discovers that this case is about much more than one random murder. There is something else, something more pervasive, scrabbling around behind the scenes. Or, put another way, for every cockroach you see in your hotel room, there are hundreds behind the walls. Surrounded by round-the-clock traffic noise, Harry wanders the streets of Bangkok lined with go-go bars, temples, opium dens, and tourist traps, trying to piece together the story of the ambassador’s death even though no one asked him to, and no one wants him to—not even Harry himself.

He really is a total mess but I still love him. I also really really loved that we got more of him and his sister, Søs. I want more from that. MORE!!!!

The case itself was really intense but also very interesting. The twists. I mean, I'm only on my second book in the series but I already learned my lesson to TRUST NO ONE!!!!

The memories of Birgitta got to me really bad. That's still something I can't forgive from the first book. So don't even get me started on the second book and Runa. RUNA.
