Colin Cotterill takes us on a trip to the People's
Democratic Republic of Laos where his Dr. Siri Paiboun mysteries are
set. We hear a National Public Radio interview talking about the first
of these books, The Coroner's Lunch. We then accompany him to
the wilds of Laos where we hear some samples of his interviews with
locals as he researches the second and third books: Thirty Three Teeth and Disco for the Departed
(the latter is due out in August 2005). This travelogue is rounded off
with a reading from the fourth book, The Corpses of Khong.
