The ambassador of Pattaya
Serge Tréfeu
One full-moon night, off the coast of Bang Saen (city located 80 km south of Bangkok), a horrific crime shatters the lives of a fishing family. Witnessing a crime perpetrated by a powerful mafia network, Sombat and Tira Rungrot are forced into a desperate flight. Within hours, their three children find themselves alone, abandoned in Pattaya, a city of excess and danger. The Rungrot children follow radically different paths. Kasem, the eldest, descends into rage and aimless wandering. Pichaite, the youngest, finds in Muay Thai a means of survival that will take him from dusty camps to the biggest rings in the country. Mali, the middle child, torn from her past, experiences exile and adoption before an unexpected future propels her far beyond her origins. From the shadows of the mafia to the limelight of power, this novel recounts the rise and fall, the loss and the rebirth in a human epic where courage, willpower, and memory shape extraordinary lives. An exceptional destiny, forged by tragedy.
