Nury Vittachi

Feng Shui Detective (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

CF Wong is not quite a private eye, nor exactly a Zen sage. He is a feng shui master, a geomancer who consults to people who want to optimise the energy flow of their buildings. But his work has a habit of presenting him with problems of a less mystical, even criminal, nature. This summer he has been saddled with a favour for his boss: to supervise a young Australian woman on work experience. Riotous cultural confusion results as the unlikely pair travel across Asia solving mysteries in a style reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes. A delightful combination of crafty plotting, quirky humour and Asian philosophy, the Feng Shui Detective is an investigator like no other.
