'The story is backpacker kids going to Bangkok to do ecstasy,' Analect says. 'Just don't get arrested.' Mike is interning in Hong Kong when his editor, a friend of his father, gives him the assignment, and a mission- find Christopher Dorr, a brilliant journalist gone AWOL. So begins a propulsive journey that will take a young man grasping after his identity headlong through fast nights in Thailand, into the grips of family tragedy, and into the heart of September 11, 2001.Along the way he encounters a kaleidoscope of characters - the Flying Circus, a hard-living band of journalists trying to expose the Thai government's murderous repression of drug dealers; Tweety, an inexplicably alluring prostitute hungry to leave her world of poverty and desperation; and the third brother, a mysterious, imaginary sibling created by Mike's haunted younger brother.Through it all, Mike must come to terms with the legacies of his troubled family and privileged upbringing.
