Synopsis

A delightfully warm and witty mystery from one of Singapore's best-known and most acclaimed writers.

Aunty Lee is on the case!

There is nothing Rosie "Aunty" Lee, amateur sleuth and proprietor of Singapore's best-loved restaurant, loves more than solving other people's problems. So when Beth Kwuan, an ambitious businesswoman, tells Aunty Lee her maid has disappeared, Aunty Lee is happy to let her own maid, Nina, help.

Only as the weeks go by, little clues make Aunty Lee worry. And as she digs into what is really going on behind the closed doors of Beth's grand house, she starts to wonder—did Beth's maid just run away, or did she meet a darker fate?

Now the race is on for Aunty Lee to get to the bottom of the mystery . . . and save Nina before it's too late!

In questo......more

I somehow missed the third in the series after having read and enjoyed the first two. In "Meddling and Murder", Aunty Lee returns as the canny widow who i......more

Goodreads review by Jacqie on May 14, 2019

I have been in a horrible funk with books this past week and haven't been able to find anything that works for me. I've read one of this author's books before and thought it might make a light and amusing distraction. Not in this case, not for me. There is a lot of dense info-dumping in the guise of......more

Goodreads review by Jack on April 20, 2019

It's probably best not to start a series at #4, though it worked extremely well for Star Wars. If Star Wars had actually started at #1, it would be a no-go (at least in my opinion). The first 30-40 pages were a mess. I was very confused as to what was going on. I couldn't find a voice in the characte......more
