Paperback. Condizione: Good. Life in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is no party or so we thought.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Written in a fast-paced episodic style that pays fitting homage to the black-and-white cinema adventure serials of yesteryear, this is an engaging memoir of the unpredictable (and at times perilous) life of the late Wong Kee Hung, an itinerant cinema manager swept up in the postwar cinema industry boom of 1950s and 60s Malaysia and Singapore. Kee Hung's line of work threw him into contact with a menagerie of characters ranging from movie stars and politicians to gangsters and headhunters. Armed with just a foldable camp bed and mosquito net, his wanderings took him into unfamiliar and sometimes dangerous territory. This book follows him closely along these journeys. The notes and diaries he kept of his adventures were discovered by his son after his death and have been woven into a glorious first person account written from the perspective of Kee Hung himself.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. For more than a decade, intrepid Kiwi Warren Olson trawled the mean streets of Bangkok and the lesser-known corners of the Land of Smiles. His brief? To uncover unsavoury truths about Thai bargirl lovers, philandering spouses, insurance fraud and scam artists of various stripes. He was a private eye prying into nooks and crannies few dared to explore and, along the way, he uncovered fascinating secrets of Thais and foreigners engaged in no good.This volume - the follow-up to Olson's bestselling Confessions of a Bangkok Private Eye - serves up more juicy portions of what goes on under the veneer in Thailand and includes stories deemed too hot to include in the first book for fear of repercussions. It also includes recent cases, where state-of-the-art surveillance devices and other advances in the dark arts of private investigation have made it easier to uncover dirt deep below the surface. This is a book that reads like exciting fiction, with one big difference: every story is true. Only the names and related identifying details have been changed to protect the innocent along with the guilty. These chronicles of a decade lived dangerously in the Land of Crooked Smiles will, by turns, entertain, shock, inflame and inform you.…
