Aunty Lee's Delights: A Witty Singaporean Mystery In this engaging mystery, Rosie "Aunty" Lee, a feisty widow and amateur sleuth, finds herself at the centre of a complex web of intrigue. After losing her husband, she has built a culinary empire from her restaurant, where spicy Singaporean meals are served to locals and tourists alike. When a body is found and one of her guests fails to show up at a dinner party, Aunty Lee knows that the two events are connected. As the investigation unfolds, a diverse cast of characters becomes entangled in the mystery, including Aunty Lee's stepson, his wife, a gay couple, and an elderly Australian tourist couple. With the help of Police Commissioner Raja and Senior Staff Sergeant Salim, Aunty Lee uses her sharp instincts to uncover clues that elude law enforcement. This spicy mystery weaves together themes of love, friendship, and food in Singapore, where cultural heritage and social tensions simmer just below the surface.
