More about the book
The investigation reveals the tragic story of Ananda, the young heir to the Siamese throne, who was found dead just six months after returning to Thailand in 1945. Author Kruger argues that Ananda's death was likely an accidental suicide, manipulated by political forces to serve a vendetta, leading to the execution of three palace aides. The book, which gained notoriety for challenging the official narrative, was banned in Thailand and its original edition has become scarce, hinting at efforts to suppress its explosive revelations.
