Five
foreigners have died in Bangkok. Were they drug overdose victims
or victims of a serial killer? Calvino believes the evidence
points to a serial killer who stalks tourists in Bangkok. The
Thai police, including Colonel Pratt, don’t buy his theory.
Calvino
teams up with an LAPD officer on a bodyguard assignment. Hidden
forces pull them through swank shopping malls, rundown hotels,
Klong Toey slum, and bars in the redlight district as they try
to keep their man and themselves alive. As Calvino learns more
about the bodies being shipped back to America, the secret of
the serial killer is revealed.
Cold
HIt Audio Book
The
audio book for Cold Hit now has a great trailer. Have
a look. The idea is to give a sense of the book and the
Bangkok setting. Much thanks to Sean at Aquarium Studios for
the production.
Jarad
Henry put together the footage and Aquarium did a fantastic
job laying down the sound and editing the video. Veteran VO
actor Dan Russell brings Vincent Calvino and Bangkok alive.
