Publisher Description
Inspector Singh is back, but this time on secondment to Bali. A bomb has exploded and Singh has been sent to help with anti-terrorism efforts. But there's a slight problem: he knows squat about hunting terrorists. He's much better suited to solving murder!
So when a body is discovered in the wreckage, killed by a bullet before the bomb went off, Singh should be the one to find the answers - especially with the help of a wily Australian copper by his side. But simple murders are never as simple as they seem - and this one has far-reaching global consequences . . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
An unexpected murder victim turns up amid the carnage after a terrorist bombing at Bali's Sari Club in Flint's engaging second Inspector Singh mystery (after 2010's A Most Peculiar Malaysian Murder). That Richard Crouch has been shot dead is clear, but it's not clear whether he was killed at the club itself. Nor is it clear why Crouch and his wife had been residing in Bali for six months or who his local friends were. As Inspector Singh and Bronwen Taylor of the Australian Federal Police investigate, the narrative weaves deftly in and out of the lives of Crouch's wife, their expat friends, and some Indonesians from the island of Sulawesi. Was Crouch killed because of sexual jealousy or for his money? Why did his account show so much money flowing in and out? Singh and Taylor find some unexpected answers in a whodunit that describes Bali in loving detail.
