Team Bangkok: Hearts on Ice takes place in Thailand, Cambodia, and Burma in the early 2000s. Milo, a Green Beret and retired US Intelligence officer from the Vietnam War and Pol Pot years, runs a restaurant with his Thai Chef wife in the Soi Rangnam section of Bangkok. But when his sixth sense warns him that kidney-transplant tourism--banned in Thailand though often overlooked--might take a darker turn, he notifies the UN. A traffic accident reveals ghastly cargo and proves him right: someone is selling stolen hearts to wealthy western patients. The UN directs Milo to form a team to find out who is behind the deadly trade but limits his options to pursue the criminals. Using wits, high tech, imagination, Muay Thai skills, and unlikely allies, Milo and his eclectic team take on a multinational criminal enterprise preying on political prisoners.

Autorenporträt
I. C. Denton, Jr., a retired MD, and Judith Denton, a retired NASA engineer, fulfilled a life-long dream in the early 2000s when they moved to Thailand to learn more about Southeast Asia. They lived there for three years, one of which they spent teaching science and math in the English track in a public high school in Khon Kaen.

Their experiences made Bangkok the perfect setting for Ira's first novel, a medical thriller set in a complex city with a cast of Thai and American characters
