Synopsis

It’s 1959: the Crown Colony is no more. Now known as the State
of Singapore, the city struggles to redefine itself—still haunted by
the scars of the Japanese occupation and now caught in the grip
of new turmoil. Communist infiltrators plot in backrooms, secret
societies wage war in the streets and alleys, crime festers in the humid
air, and union strikes threaten to erupt into chaos.
But for American private eye Mickey Callahan, life is simple: catching
cheating spouses, trailing elusive jewel thieves, and keeping his head
down. But when he’s hired to solve the brutal murder of the island’s
wealthiest British tycoon, everything changes. Mickey is thrust into a
world of privilege, power, and peril—a dangerous combination that
promises to make or break him.
As Mickey digs deeper, he uncovers a web of lies and betrayal that runs
through the heart of the city, pulling him into the orbit of government
officials, dangerous men, and beautiful women with secrets to hide.
Someone is watching Mickey’s every move and doesn’t want him to
get too close to the truth.
But Mickey Callahan has a nose for trouble—and this time, it might
just lead him to his grave.
