Major Sorn Satya looked at the little that remained of the girl’s face. Not for the first time that morning he resisted the urge to regurgitate his breakfast. This time he was successful.”
When Inspector Satya is unexpectedly instructed by the Kampot Chief of Police to work on what looks like a routine missing persons case little does he realise he will become ensnared in a web of murder, underage sex and pepper smuggling that is set to shake the peaceful town of Kampot to its core.
The second of Bibby Jackson’s Cambodian trilogy, Peppered Justice picks up where To Cook A Spider left off, with disgraced Cambodian detective Major Sorn Satya transferred to Kampot after his handling of the Defaux murder case. However, despite this set back the inspector is determined to fight for justice rather than kowtow to authority.
“Peppered with humour, Bibby Jackson's second novel is as much of a page-turner as it is a psychological insight into what makes humans tick, making it a riveting read from start to finish.”
