Tenzing Norbu has work troubles. 'Ten' has already swapped life as a Buddhist monk for a career in the LAPD; now he's becoming a private eye. His last day as an LA cop could have gone more smoothly: a simple domestic dispute ends with two bodies, three victims and an unceremonious exit.
Ex–Buddhist monk turned private eye Tenzing Norbu is back with a new case, a new love—and a whole new set of problems In The Second Rule of Ten, Norbu is faced with not one but two cases. While he investigates the unexplained death of his former client—a Hollywood mogul named Marv Rudolf—he must also search for the missing sister of a wizened L.A. philanthropist. But when an unforeseen family crisis that sends him back to Tibet, Ten finds himself on the outs with his best buddy and former partner, Bill, who is heading up the official police investigation into Marv’s death. Cases and crises start to collide. When Ten mistakenly ignores his second rule, he becomes entangled in an unfortunate association with a Los Angeles drug cartel. As he fights to save those he loves, and himself, from the deadly gang, he also comes face to face with his own personal demons. Working through his anger at Bill, doubts about his latest lady love, and a challenging relationship with his father, Ten learns to see the world in a new light—and realizes that in every situation the truth is sometimes buried beneath illusion.
It was all going so smoothly for ex-Buddhist monk and current private eye, Tenzing Norbu. His clients are finally paying, his pathologist girlfriend is a dream and even his cat is finally behaving himself.
In the latest installment in the Dharma Detective series, private investigator Tenzing 'Ten' Norbu takes on the seedy world of human trafficking in Los Angeles and abroad. Following a shocking revelation involving his best friend and former partner, Bill, Ten is sent on an unexpected trip to Sarajevo to find a missing family member. This propels him on a mission to track down the ringleader of a corrupt worldwide organization operating through the dark tunnels of the Internet, whose impact hits too close to home. Ten is aided by a diverse cast of characters, including his eccentric assistant, Kim; genius hacker Mike; informant-turned-entrepreneur G-Force; and Petar, a chain-smoking Bosnian cab driver and fellow ex-police officer. Struggling to keep his personal and professional life intact proves difficult as Ten attempts to help Bill's strained marriage; resolve unfinished business with Bill's sister-in-law, Julie; heal his own family scars; and protect more innocent victims - all while facing down issues that are far bigger than he ever imagined.
Tenzing Norbu and his fiancee, Julie, eagerly await the arrival of Ten's best friends, Yeshe and Lobsang, his boyhood chums who have since become the Head Abbots at Ten's former monastic home in India. To complicate matters, one of the novice lamas - a brilliant protege of Lobsang's - goes missing at the event's culmination.
