Product Description
Inspector Singh is back, but this time on secondment to Bali. A bomb has exploded and Singh has been sent to help with anti-terrorism efforts. But there's a slight problem: he knows squat about hunting terrorists. He's much better suited to solving murder! So when a body is discovered in the wreckage, killed by a bullet before the bomb went off, Singh should be the one to find the answers - especially with the help of a wily Australian copper by his side. But simple murders are never as simple as they seem - and this one has far-reaching global consequences . . .

Like the other Flint novel I read this too is a good, easy-to-read, entertaining whodunit with subtle humour. I liked it especially for all the background information about Bali - well researched - and about the 2005 bombings, and the depiction of the island. This one is the second in the series, but they can as well be read out of order.

Thank you for tagging me. I enjoyed the first book in this series and I'm sure I'll like this one too, it may be a while until I can get to it as my TBR pile is massive.
Thanks too for the lovely little notebook you made, it's just the right size to fit in the pocket of my handbag. Also thanks for the craft bits you sent I'm sure I'll be able to use these :-)

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Being left on the NNS table to fulfila wish :-)
Gee, thanks! I enjoyed A Most Peculiar Malaysian Murder and I'm sure I'll enjoy this. What is also nice is that three of the previous readers are here at the Oxford convention with me ☺. The missing link is hakkalina - where are you, you haven't been to the forums either lately? Have you gone and found yourself a man who does not like books? Think again!
I now have two copies of this book, so it's high time I should read one.
Hakkalina is still missing from the forums and didn't respond to a PM I tried to send her last month about a possible visit to Budapest. I am too busy to travel there after all, so you do not have to hide anymore...
Have just began reading this and one can't help mirrowing things to one's own experience. Inspector Singh had never investigated a murder where the murderer and victim hadn't had some contact before and this random killing by bombing felt extra bad for him (is it already 13 years ago? Have to be, if ApoloniaX says so). My friend was murdered because she had bought the wrong house; the murderer had not returned from his daily unsuperwised walk back to Kellokoski mental institution but had instead headed home to kill his own mother. Mommie Dearest had failed to mention him that she had sold the place three years previously, so what he found was my friend, a total stranger. Yet he brutally killed her, because she happened to be there and that is probably something I will never get over, that life and death can depend on pure chance. What are the odds of ending up murdered in your own home by a total stranger in the middle of a sleepy countryside where the avarage age of the population is 75+? And yet it happened.
A client of ours lost her granddaughter when a man shot randomly at people on the street from a rooftop in Järvenpää. She died because she didn't have to pee. She had been walking on the street with her friend who said she needed to spend a penny right NOW and went into a restaurant. When she came out, her friend who had remained outside had been shot dead. She who went to the toilet will feel guilty forever, because that is how the mind works. If they hadn't stopped to answer her call of nature, her friend would be alive.

Just to comment here that one does only have to use one's credit card at the ABC-petrol station in Söderkulla to have money withdrawals in Indonesia. Happened to several people last month. Luckily the highest amount one can take from an Indonesian bank automat is 75€ and usually the Finnish bank reacts to repeated withdrawals. Didn't happen to me, but all the same I now have restricted the use of my credit card. So much so that when I was in London my card didn't work... Luckily I am an old lady and always carry cash. And the hotel was prepaid.
I didn't remember Inspector Singh being this grumpy and strait forward in his investigations. A bit too many gory details for my taste.

Thank you so much - looks nice! Just have to get the previous parts of the series first, of course, before reading this!
Journal Entry 19 by Chania at Kokkola, Keski-Pohjanmaa / Mellersta Österbotten Finland on Wednesday, February 20, 2019
After all, read this without waiting for the previous part, and it didn't matter - I got into the book well enough. Interesting, easy, and mildly amusing, even if the subject was hard.
Sending this to dotdot next!
Mildly amusing sounds just perfect :) Thank you, Chania!
