The Frangipani Tree Mystery
Historischer Krimi von Ovidia Yu
1936 in the Crown Colony of Singapore, and the British abdication crisis and rising Japanese threat seem very far away. When the Irish nanny looking after Acting Governor Palin’s daughter dies suddenly – and in mysterious circumstances – mission school-educated local girl SuLin – an aspiring journalist trying to escape an arranged marriage – is invited to take her place.
Ovidia Yu, geb. 1961 ist eine vielfach gefeierte Autorin in Singapur. Neben vielen Theaterstücken schreibt sie auch Krimis und das ist der erste Band ihrer neuesten Serie. “Yu’s characterization is superb, not only of the protagonist Su Lin but the suspects and supporting characters. Some of my favorites have little to do with the case directly, such as her grandmother or the cook and gardener at the mansion.” (Leserin) (4 Rezensionen / 4,7 Sterne), 320 Seiten noch günstig?
