Shepherd in Bangkok: The Jack Shepherd Novels Books 1-3
(2024)(A book in the Jack Shepherd series)
An omnibus of novels by Jake Needham
Jack Shepherd is the kind of a lawyer people call a troubleshooter. At least that’s what they call him when they’re being polite.
That means he finds the trouble and then he just shoots it, right? If life were only that simple.
Shepherd was a politically-connected Washington lawyer, a man famed for his ability to pull apart even the most sophisticated financial schemes, but the truth is he’s sick to death of the whole Washington DC hoo-ha. He surprises everybody, most of all himself, by abruptly walking away from it all, taking himself halfway around the world, and taking a job as a professor of international business at Bangkok’s Chulalongkorn University.
It seems like he made a good call. He’s popular with his students, he marries a beautiful French artist, and he develops an intriguing circle of Bangkok friends in high and low places. The quiet life in his new tropical paradise is working out really well for him.
Until, one sunny day, the past shows up.
SHEPHERD IN BANGKOK includes three full-length Jack Shepherd novels, over 1100 pages of engrossing crime fiction that immerses you in one of the world’s most fascinating cities, and all at a savings of more than 80% off the price of the three titles bought individually:
