He discovers that all is not well at this urban monastery in the heart of Bangkok. Together with his dogged assistant, an orphaned boy named Jak, Father Ananda uncovers a startling series of clues that eventually expose the motivation behind the crime and lead him to the murderers. "Mindfulness and Murder" is the first in the Father Ananda mystery series. The second in the series, Garden of Hell, was published in 2006. Nick Wilgus is a writer and senior sub-editor for the “Outlook” section of the Bangkok Post. He is the author of Bilal's Bread and Adventures of a Bird-Shit Foreigner, both from Alyson Publications in the US under the pen name of Sulayman X. He has lived in Bangkok for more than a decade. “A gripping read peppered with fascinating insights into the day to day life of a Buddhist monk, Nick Wilgus's Mindfulness and Murder puts a new spin on an old genre.” — Cameron Cooper, Untamed Travel Magazine “Wilgus, a 10-year resident of the Realm and Bangkok Post staffer, has a good fix on temple boys, the precepts of Buddhism, the jaundiced eye with which the populace regards the constabulary.” — Bernard Trink, Bangkok Post Click the above link/image for details of this book.
