Description
Venom is a fast-paced psychological thriller of abandonment, retribution and justice.
Michel Christian is born in a pauper’s hospital during a tropical storm. The nuns call him a punishment from God. At five years old, he is thrown out on the dangerous streets to survive as best he can. He is bui doi – the dust of life.
He grows into a ferocious manhood in the back alleys of wartime Saigon. He learns not only to survive, but to thrive, in a pitiless world. Brilliant, chilling and charismatic, there is no prison that can hold him, no policeman he cannot buy.
Michael remembers every beating and every betrayal, and declares vengeance on those who abandoned him.
From the notorious Tihar prison to Bangkok’s dark underbelly, along the 1970s hippie trails of Asia to the ancient Indian city of Varanasi, this is a tale of fate, love and obsession, loosely based on a true story.
