With the assistance of her trusty Chinese maid, Amah Li Leen, Heloise inches closer to the truth. But when Amah is implicated in the brutal plot, Heloise must reconsider who she can trust, before the killer strikes again.

[NicholaAnkeMillen · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I know there is supposed to be a twist at the end. But I feel like too much is unresolved and some things just don't make sense.
