About the Series
Vincent Calvino is a New York lawyer turned Bangkok private eye — sharp, bruised, and fluent in the city’s particular grammar of money, desire, and survival. Christopher G. Moore’s nineteen-novel series tracks him across three decades of Southeast Asia, from the neon-soaked 1990s to near-future Bangkok in 2036. The books are crime fiction and social chronicle in equal measure, written by an expat who has lived the territory. Each one stands alone. Together they form one of the longest-running portraits of a city in contemporary noir.
“The Vincent Calvino series belongs on every Asian crime list.” — Booklist
