Beschreibungen

<p>Questions abound in the aftermath of the Little India riot. Hashwini wonders if she triggered the chaos. Jessica asks if she should reveal what truly happened in the ambulance. Sharon thinks that the catastrophe could be what she needs to boost her political career.<br/><br/>The lives of three women intertwine when accident and coincidence collide. In Gimme Lao!-style hilarity, they become wrapped up in a web of truth, deception and political connections. This is a perceptive, fast-paced romp that asks &ldquo;what if&rdquo; of the riot that recently shook Singapore.</p>
Sebastian Sim grew up in a two-room HDB flat with parents who were part of the pioneer generation of independent Singapore.

Not one to shy away from the road less taken, he has travelled around the world to soak up different experiences and cultures, and tried his hand in diverse industries: a bartender at Boat Quay, an assistant outlet manager at McDonald’s, an insurance salesman, a prison officer in a maximum security prison, and a croupier in a casino.

He published three Chinese wuxia novels between 2004 and 2012, and his first English-language novel, <em>Let’s Give It Up for Gimme Lao!</em> (2016), was shortlisted for the 2015 Epigram Books Fiction Prize.
