Series by Jake Needham

In a vibrant, gritty Bangkok, former Washingtonite and business school teacher Jack Shepherd navigates a treacherous underworld of crime and corruption, revealing the dark secrets hidden beneath the city's exotic allure in this gripping crime fiction series by Jake Needham.

**Series: Jack Shepherd** **Author: Jake Needham** In a world where loyalties shift like sand and power is a tempting mirage, former high-powered attorney Jack Shepherd finds himself weighed down by the allure of an uncomplicated life in Bangkok—until the façade crumbles. Once an elite player in the treacherous game of international law, Jack's past collides violently with his present when a shadowy bank scandal pulls him back into the web of deception, greed, and murder he thought he left behind. Set against the vibrant backdrop of Southeast Asia—from the bustling streets of Bangkok to the glitzy skyline of Hong Kong, and the secrets of Phuket’s idyllic shores—this series explores the thin line between justice and revenge. Jack, an unwilling hero who is both a professor and an accidental detective, must navigate a dark labyrinth filled with old allies turned enemies and new friends bearing deadly secrets. As he grapples with his own demons and relentless threats, Jack confronts a chilling reality: in a world where the law is a mere suggestion, trust is a luxury few can afford. Each pulse-pounding installment challenges him to outsmart the malevolent forces at play, leading him deeper into a labyrinth of betrayal and aspirations that endanger everything he holds dear. Join Jack Shepherd as he dives into the depths of a perilous conspiracy, where every turn brings danger and every ally could be a foe—will he reclaim his past and protect his future, or will he be consumed by the very shadows he seeks to expose? The answer lies in a game of high stakes where nothing is as it seems.
