Dr. Siri might finally be allowed to retire (again). Although he loves his two morgue assistants, heâ€™s tired of being Laosâ€™s national coroner, a job he never wanted in the first place. Plus, heâ€™s pushing eighty, and wants to spend some time with his wife before his untimely death (which has been predicted by the local transvestite fortune teller).,But retirement is not in the cards for Dr. Siri after all. Heâ€™s dragged into one last job for the Lao government: supervising an excavation for the remains of U.S. fighter pilot who went down in the remote northern Lao jungle ten years earlier. The presence of American soldiers in Laos is a hot-button issue for both the Americans and the Lao involved, and the search party includes high-level politicians and scientists. But one member of the party is found dead, setting off a chain of accidents Dr. Siri suspects are not completely accidental. Everyone is trapped in a cabin in the jungle, and the bodies are starting to pile up. Can Dr. Siri get to the bottom of the MIA pilotâ€™s mysterious story before the fortune tellerâ€™s prediction comes true?
