Up Like Thunder: Pete Chandler Travels The World

The first in the Pete Chandler series---mysteries and suspense set in exotic locations. Myanmar (Burma), ruled by a corrupt military junta since 1962, and embroiled in one of the longest-running civil wars in history, finally opens its borders for limited business and tourism in 2011. The US Export/Import Bank, anxious to leverage trade agreements into democratic reforms, tasks an American finance expert to open doors there. She vanishes without a trace. Investigator, Pete Chandler, dispatched by her panicked congressman father, is on a mission to find her and bring her home. Chandler travels up the Irrawaddy River and charges into the heart of darkness of corrupt government, dictatorial generals, criminal networks---and the fight of his life.
