I have just finished Breathing Water, one of Timothy Hallinan's Poke Rafferty adventure / mystery novels, and really enjoyed it. The books take place in Bangkok, Thailand, and Hallinan paints a vivid portrait of that city and the people there. As I have mentioned before, years ago I read all of Hallinan's Simeon Grist mysteries, and loved them all. Then the series ended, and I didn't read another of his books until I came across an advanced reading copy of the latest Poke Rafferty adventure. And once again, I advise mystery and adventure novel lovers to pick up some of these books and give them a try. And I'm not even getting paid to promote his books on this Blog. Yet.
