Most choose not to see.
In the concrete canyons after dark, violence moves unseen—until something older and more deliberate begins to hunt it.
When predators strike, they vanish.
When victims survive, they do not talk.aUS expat lawyer Glenn Murray Cohen was enjoying an extended visit to America after an absence of eighteen years. He and his significant other Mon, a Thai psychic, lived the good life in Tampa, Florida, until a violent street encounter drove them back to Bangkok. Glenn had no idea that his return was largely orchestrated by his friends back in Bangkok, who planned to once again draw Glenn into a dangerous situation for which he felt ill-suited, this time as an assassin. However, Glenn can't completely reject his friends' insistence that these particular foes must be hunted down and he eventually agrees to join in international intrigue and espionage, all at his peril.. Another exotic noir thriller by a master of the genre.
When bodies are found, they are arranged with purpose.
Told through shifting points of view—witnesses on a balcony, a woman in an alley, detectives, a coroner, a blogger, and the thing that walks the night—Creature of the Dark and Light is a short, unsettling exploration of justice, restraint, and the cost of collective indifference.
There is no hero here.
Only a city, its predators, and the darkness that finally answers back.
