    About this audiobook

    A fifties murder mystery set in Malaya from author of the popular Crowner John books

    Arriving in Singapore, newly-qualified pathologist Tom Howden soon discovers that his new home is a hotbed of scandal and intrigue. When an English planter is attacked one night, the finger of suspicion points at local bandits. It soon becomes clear, however, that the situation is far more complicated - and deadly - than it first appeared. Tom Howden's newly-acquired forensic skills are about to be put to the ultimate test.

      A decent mystery that takes place during the conflict of the 1950s known as the Malayan Emergency. I particularly liked the main character, who, although didn't have a big part in the story, was a likeable fellow who was just amazed that life had brought him to this exotic place with his first responsible job and far away from his Tyneside home. The story describes the locale and setting very well, but not the background of the campaign, which has piqued my interest and necessitates more reading.
