The profits from the sex industry as well as other criminal activities are what's funding Narong Sunarawani's bid for power. On the surface he's a reputable, honest businessman, a patriot, but the reality is far different: he's the head of a brutal crime syndicate. The tension ramps up as he chases power, whilst publicly giving the impression that he's backing away from it. I regularly read the news from Thailand and I found the story all too believable - but very enjoyable. I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
''Vortex... the Endgame'' is a sequel, but it reads perfectly well as a standalone, but you will get more out of it if you've read [[Vortex by Matt Carrell|Vortex]] first. And why deprive yourself of the pleasure? For more on Thailand from Matt Carrell we can recommend [[Blood Brothers... Thai Style by Matt Carrell|Blood Brothers... Thai Style]].
