Book description
Dr Siri s bagged himself a holiday: an all-expenses-paid trip to the
northern mountains of Laos. What s more, through a bit of skilful
bartering (well, blackmail) he has wangled it so that his nearest and
dearest may accompany him. They are to assist a US-funded search for a
lost CIA pilot Boyd Bowry missing since his aircraft was downed in 1968.
But Siri s not taking the search too seriously, as he strongly suspects
that when the helicopter exploded, the pilot followed suit. However,
just hours into the trip, it becomes apparent that ulterior motives are
at work within the group. And Siri s suspicions are confirmed when those
associated with the airman start dropping like the insects that frequent
the surrounding landscape. Siri and co are caught up in something big:
something that goes way back, and way over their heads. And, if this
wasn t bad enough, a psychic of unquestionable repute then informs Siri
that he will shortly die: in a day or two , to be precise. Dr Siri s
