The red lotus, by Chris Bohjalian

 

This is a compelling thriller about a woman who is on a bike trip to Vietnam when her boyfriend unexpectedly disappears and later turns up dead. As she investigates his disappearance, working with investigators in Vietnam, the U.S. consulate, and later, a private investigator back home in New York, it becomes clear that his death was part of a much larger story involving sensitive medical research, espionage, and biological threats. The writing is very good, and the plot moves along at a fast pace.
