"From Thailand with love" is a collection of six novelettes based in Thailand, ranging in length from 5,000 to 25,000 words and are set mainly in the mid to late 20th century, although the final tale commences in the 1930’s and finishes in the early 21st century.
The stories encompass some wide ranging subject matter, including: government corruption; the Thai drinking culture; senseless Thai on Thai violence; prostitution and the fractured lives of expats who marry bar-girls; Buddhism and reincarnation; the huge gulf between the lives of the desperately poor and the privileged rich; and even a Thai ghost story.

Dr Jak – A saint or a sinner?

Thai ghosts in a sleepy seaside town? – bah.. humbug..

Glyn – The alcoholic who loved too much

Drum –who trod the fine line between fame, fortune and disaster.

Mobi and Som – worlds and cultures apart, but brothers in suffering

Lawan – born into low class poverty, raised by the rich upper classes, but to what end?

So relax and let your mind travel into an exotic Siamese whirlwind; immerse yourself in these six magical tales of a far-off land.
Be your own judge of whether they are true or fiction…
