A WOMAN OF BANGKOK

The story of Reggie Joyce, fresh from England and a frustrated love of his brother's wife, has the obvious anatomy of a protracted lost weekend. In Bangkok he becomes embroiled in a miserable love affair with the White Leopard, a hardened whore who plays a nasty game of pounce that leads him to the verge of thievery and murder. Sacked by his longsuffering boss and near-victim, he comes out of the blind dive in time to take a plane to a brighter-skied England.
