Book Review: The Coyote: A Young Detective Choo Murder Mystery



In a world dominated by seasoned detectives with a taste for alcohol-soaked vices and the occasional broken relationship, “The Coyote: A Young Detective Choo Murder Mystery” by David B. Bond introduces readers to a refreshingly new protagonist – 26-year-old Choochai Sirisi, or Detective Choo. The story breathes life into the genre by introducing readers to a character who combines the quick thinking and deductive prowess of Sherlock Holmes with an unusual skill set and deep understanding of Forensic Entomology. The character of Detective Choo is beautifully developed by the author, striking a balance between youthful vigor and keen intellect. His evolution throughout the novel is a testament to the author’s skill in character crafting. Choochai’s dedication to his craft, paired with his unique forensic expertise, makes him a captivating lead, and readers will find themselves rooting for his success.

The story takes an interesting turn when Detective Choo is handed the perplexing case of a murdered female tourist found discarded in a farmer’s field on the picturesque Jomtien Beach in Thailand. All evidence points toward Coral Island, off the coast of Pattaya Beach, as another girl had mysteriously vanished from the island. As Choo delves into the investigation, readers get invited to a rollercoaster ride filled with twists, turns, and mind-bending misdirection.

What sets Detective Choo apart from the run-of-the-mill detectives is his unique ability as a Forensic Entomologist. While analyzing insects on a corpse might not be everyone’s cup of tea, Choochai Sirisi excels in this field, bringing exceptional skill to the police force’s arsenal. Bond’s narrative ingeniously integrates the practice of Forensic Entomology into the story, offering readers a captivating glimpse into this unusual yet highly valuable crime-solving technique.
