“Hot stuff.”

“IT'S ENOUGH TO MAKE LUDLUM SEEM
HUMDRUM.”
- Atlanta Journal-Constitution


For years Christian Hatcher, the man they called Shadow
Warrior, killed expertly and faithfully for his country -
until a shocking betrayal landed him in a hellhole South
American jail....

“THAI HORSE moves as fast as a mob shoot-out,
brim-filled with sights and names that, more often
than not, are reality-based.”
- New York Daily News


Now, free again, his body wasted and his spirit nearly
crushed, Hatcher returns to Hong Kong and Bangkok -
deadly and seductive stops on the heroin pipeline
leading from the notorious Golden Triangle.
There he will hunt down the truth about the U.S.
general's son, his one true friend, who's been missing
since the war. And the closer he comes to a solution,
the more he fears what it will be....

“Christian Hatcher is the kind of guy you wouldn't
mind having at your side when trouble lurks
around the corner....Diehl knows how to tell a
story, and his novel moves.”
- The New York Times Book Review
