'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.
