AND BROTHER IT'S STARTING TO RAIN
If you’re going to fight, fight like you’re the third monkey on the ramp to Noah’s Ark.
And brother, it’s starting to rain.
Samuel Tay has retired from Singapore CID. He's no longer a police inspector. It wasn’t entirely his idea, but that’s another story. John August is a guy who has saved Tay’s butt more than once over the years. He’s an American who may or may not do something for the CIA.
Now August is here to collect on all those favors Tay owes him. He needs Tay’s help to investigate a murder.
‘Whose murder?’ Tay asks.
‘Mine,’ August tells him.

Once upon a time, I was a screen and television writer, but I started writing crime novels when I realized I really didn't like movies and television all that much.
Since then, I've published twenty crime and mystery novels. I've been nominated for the Barry Award three times, and the International Thriller Writers' Award once. The seventh book in my Inspector Tay series — WHO THE HELL IS HARRY BLACK? — won the Barry Award for Best Paperback Mystery of 2024.
