#tagtheauthor A WORLD OF TROUBLE by Jake Needham #ebookkornerkafe Needham channels John le Carré in this raw, authentic tale of international intrigue. A WORLD OF TROUBLE is one terrific novel. - THE BANGKOK POST Jack Shepherd was sick of Washington politics, sick of corporate law, and even a little sick of himself. So he hit the road looking for a new start, made a couple of wrong turns, and somehow wound up in Hong Kong. Now he needs a job, and being General Chalerm Kitnarocks lawyer is a job, so he takes it. Shepherd could certainly have done a lot worse for himself. Charlie Kitnarok is the worlds ninety-eighth richest man. But hes also a former prime minister of Thailand now living in exile in Dubai. When hes not making money, hes plotting his return to political power. For Shepherd, that could be a real problem. Thailand already has a prime minister, and shes a woman with whom Shepherd once had a brief relationship. It will get particularly messy if, as Shepherd suspects, Charlie is smuggling arms to his supporters and intends to use the Thai army to seize control of the country. Can Shepherd keep his two friends from destroying each other and prevent Thailand from sliding into chaos? Thailand is hurtling closer and closer to a bloody civil war. And as unlikely as it may sound, Jack Shepherd is probably the only person on earth who can stop it. **LINKS IN COMMENTS**
