TV journalist Joceline Hampson faces danger and intrigue when she launches a determined quest to solve two mysteries among the haunts of the spirit-worshipping tribes and heroin smugglers of the Golden Triangle.

This Anthony Gray novel contain historical information that makes it clear that the political situation in Thailand that is not easily accessible to outsiders. Anthony Gray novels are an education in themselves since the information they contain is reliable and based on hard facts. Add this to a gripping and interesting plot, and this produces a great combination.

Was OK mainly because i could visualise Bangkok and northern thailand areas in the book. Story was a bit too standard

For all the interesting information about elephants, there just wasn't enough in this book to keep me reading.
