I strongly recommend that you read the Alfie Goes to Thailand series books in order, particularly the three novels.
The first novel - Post-it Notes reveals that Alfie’s life was complicated, and by the time he flew to Thailand he was emotionally unstable. He had to reconcile the fallout from a bitter divorce, with the global financial crisis and a need to understand the culture of a country, which was often indifferent to reality.
When I looked at the story from an independent third-party viewpoint, it was hard to weld into a cohesive narrative. So, I think it is better if Alfie tells you in his own words, exactly what happened in Post-it Notes, the first novel of the trilogy, before I deal with the horrors of the second novel - House of Vipers.
Skytube is an Epilogue linking Post-it Notes and House of Vipers
A world in chaos. A fanciful dream. Split allegiance could lead to disaster.
Back in Cape Town, Alfie must save his business. But the call of Thailand and the commitment he’s made spell danger
When the World’s banking system collapses, everyone is hurting. The headless chicken doesn’t know which way to turn, while the wily fox sees the opportunity. Alfie’s outrageous dream of a futuristic transportation system is the spark that ignites his fuse, and he acts. As he leads his team through desperate times, he streamlines the company by slashing overheads and retrenching staff. In three short months he turns it round.
But little does he know the challenge that faces him in Thailand is much greater. And he may not make it with his sanity intact.
If you think any incidents or scenes in the series are unrealistic, or farfetched, remember the story is based on true life events. And truth is often stranger than fiction.
