Marina Bay Sins

Detective Inspector Stanley Low is having a bad day. His bipolar disorder is sabotaging yet another therapy session when two bodies are discovered at Marina Bay Sins, Singapore's most prestigious hotel: a murdered prostitute and a dead expatriate. Thrown back into the sordid underworld he desperately tried to escape, Low goes undercover in a city that refuses to acknowledge its dark side. Behind the gleaming facade of Asia's cleanest metropolis lies a corrupt world of gambling addiction, crime syndicates, international money laundering, immoral celebrities, and politicians on the take. Belligerent, bipolar, and brilliant, Low is a Chinese-Singaporean detective educated in London, with a foot in both cities and a mission to eradicate violent crime wherever he finds it. As he closes in on the truth behind the Marina Bay murders, he'll force Singapore to confront the uncomfortable questions it's been avoiding for far too long. Marina Bay Sins may be the sparkling embodiment of economic prosperity, but Low is about to expose the rot beneath the surface.
