: Introducing Detective Inspector Stanley Low in his first British case. He`s brilliant, he`s bipolar. Singapore doesn`t want him, and he doesn`t want to be in London. He is the wrong face in the wrong place, but he is the right man for the job. London is about to meet the bloody foreigner who won`t walk away.
: Knowing nothing of Singapore in the 1990s, a young Englishman, Neil Humphreys, arrives in the land of air-conned shopping centres and Lee Kuan Yew. From the aunties in the hawker centres to expats dressed as bananas, from Singlish to kiasuism, and from Singaporeans at home to Singaporeans abroad, Humphreys explores all aspects of Singaporean life, taking in the sights, dissecting the culture and illuminating each place and person with his perceptive and witty observations. Written by someone who is at once both insider and outsider, the book is a wonderfully funny and disarmingly honest portrait of Singapore and its people.
: London is angry, divided, and obsessed with foreigners. A murdered Asian and some racist graffiti in Chinatown threaten to trigger a race war that the white supremacists of Make England Great Again have been hoping for. They just need a tipping point.
: When a foreign worker is found dead in a Singapore back street, few people care. Even the police dismiss the killing as another underclass slaying. Then more victims turn up, all killed with the same weapon and Singapore must come to grips with its first serial killer in decades. The murderer must be stopped.
