An Ouroboros Novel
by Chelsea Frandsen
A brother who disappeared without explanation.
A brother who never stopped waiting.
When Bangkok drags them into the same conspiracy, neither gets to stay buried.
In the bustling city of Bangkok, Kai Saetangmasawat is struggling to keep his life together. Between flunking exams and dealing with a manipulative CEO at his internship, Kai's world is a whirlwind of stress and unanswered questions. But when his estranged brother Jet returns after a decade, Kai is both angry and confused. Where has Jet been all these years? Why did he leave without a word? And, most importantly, why is he back now? Kai's questions are met with cryptic answers, and Jet seems reluctant to share the full truth. There are things he's hiding, things that tie into a dangerous web of corporate corruption, family secrets, and their parents' mysterious deaths.
As Kai and Jet navigate the treacherous waters of family loyalty and corporate corruption, they must confront not only the demons of their past but also the moral complexities of the present. Can they trust each other, or has too much time and too many secrets passed for reconciliation? And what will it cost them to uncover the truth about their parents' deaths?
Through tense confrontations, high-stakes negotiations, and personal revelations, the brothers are forced to rethink everything they thought they knew about each other, their family, and the world they inhabit. The stakes are higher than ever, and the more they uncover, the more they realize that their lives, and the future of their family, depend on the choices they make.
