When she encounters her neighbour, an aging novelist from the old country, she embarks on an audacious plan to represent Dragan’s new novel as her own.

Her new husband, Darryl, is a giant man-child still under the thumb of his powerful mother. Wong Ji Li discovers she is not Darryl’s first victim. She must find the courage to escape her predicament or face the same fate as the other Jasmine.
