“The Coroner’s Lunch is a satisfying feast for the mind.”—Rebecca Pawel, author of Death of a Nationalist, winner of the 2004 Edgar Award for Best First Novel
The national coroner of Laos, Dr. Siri Paiboun, is no respecter of persons or party; at his advanced age he can afford to be independent.
 With the assistance of his helpers, the mentally retarded Mr. Geung and Nurse Dtui (“Fatty”)—who has dubbed him “Super Spirit Doc”—he
 elucidates the causes of mysterious deaths. But he also communes with the deposed king, whose special channel to the occult has left him,
 and attends a conference of shamans called by the Communist government to give the spirits an ultimatum: obey party orders or get out.
