The Frangipani Tree Mystery
by Ovidia Yu
The first in this new mystery series takes place in Singapore in the 1930’s. SuLin is not traditional, and does not want an arranged marriage. Her goal is to get a job, and she is temporarily assigned as a nanny to the household of the British governor after the former nanny is found dead. SuLin’s relationship with the detective LeFroy develops as they try to solve the deaths in the household. I really liked the historical background of the politics of the time, as well as the character SuLin. Recommended.
