About this listen

From the expat villas of Saigon to the drug cartels of the Golden Triangle—a contemporary reimagining of a timeless spiritual classic.

Sidney began as the "Golden Boy" of District 2, groomed to inherit a legacy of corporate power.

But looking down from his father’s villa, he saw only a cage.

Walking away from his corporate future, he drifts into the chaotic, humid heart of Southeast Asia, searching for meaning from the haze of the backpacker trail to the silent meditation compounds of Northern Thailand.

But Sidney soon realizes that to transcend the world, he must first conquer it.

In the neon-lit shadows of Bangkok, he transforms into the "Consigliere" for a Golden Triangle drug lord. Trading his drifter’s robes for bespoke Italian suits, he applies his intellect to a deadly underworld of logistics, bribes, and bloodshed, accumulating wealth and power to see if they can finally fill the void.

He had to become a sinner to find the saint. He had to destroy himself in the Chao Phraya River to finally learn how to live.

This fast-paced philosophical novella is the essential listen for backpackers, digital nomads, and expats—anyone who has ever stared at a skyline and wondered if there is more to life than the grind.
