Killed at the Whim of a Hat

the first in the outrageous crime series from the author of the Dr Siri novels
Set in Thailand, the first in the outrageously entertaining crime series featuring a crime reporter and the most eccentric family you'll ever meet, from the author of the Dr Siri novels.

'A compassionate and funny crime mystery, just a bit dark around the edges, and well wise to the ways of the world' Euro Crime

When crime reporter Jimm Juree is forced to follow her family from Chiang Mai to a fishing village on the Gulf of Siam, she's convinced her career is over. Her journalism will surely dwindle to reports on the annual monsoon-induced floods, for what crimes could possibly happen in such an out-of-the-way place?

A local palm oil plantation owner and his worker are excavating a well. They dig down six feet and hit metal. It turns out to be the roof of an old Volkswagen combi, which, once unearthed, is found to contain two skeletons - one of them wearing a hat.

A monk is murdered in Lang Suan, the nearest town. There is apparently no motive for the killing and no suspects are found. But there are odd connections between this killing and several others. Suddenly Jimm's new life becomes somewhat more promising - and a great deal more dangerous.
