Summary:

"Slightly hobbled by a twisted ankle, crime-solving restaurateur Aunty Lee begrudgingly agrees to take a rest from running her famous caf©♭, Aunty Lee's Delights, and turns over operations to her friend and new business partner Cherril. The caf©♭ serves as a meeting place for an animal rescue society that Cherril once supported. They were forced to dissolve three years earlier after a British expat killed the puppy she'd adopted, sparking a firestorm of scandal. The expat, Allison Fitzgerald, left Singapore in disgrace, but has returned with an ax to grind (and a lawsuit). At the caf©♭ one afternoon, Cherril receives word that Allison has been found dead in her hotel-- and foul play is suspected. When a veterinarian, who was also involved in the scandal, is found dead, suspicion soon falls on the animal activists. What started with an internet witch hunt has ended in murder-- and in a tightly knit, law-and-order society like Singapore, everyone is on edge. Before anyone else gets hurt-- and to save her business-- Aunty Lee must get to the bottom of what really happened three years earlier, and figure out who is to be trusted in this tangled web of scandal and lies" -- Page [4] of cover.
