One complaint I heard in Thailand about Burdett's series is that it fixates on the grotesque. In "Bangkok Tattoo," an aggrieved transsexual Thai murders a black American Marine with drug-crazed cobras and a giant python. If anything, "Bangkok Haunts" is even more bizarre, with ghosts on the rampage and a uniquely grisly Thai form of execution called the elephant game.
