Winner of the 2017 Epigram Books Fiction Prize

A dark comedy by the author of Let's Give It Up for Gimme Lao!

Hashwini worries that she has accidentally started the 2013 Little India riot. Jessica is injured on the night, but her rescuer is put in a coma by her overenthusiastic boyfriend. Sharon manipulates the facts to further her political career. Yet among the life lost, modesty outraged, property destroyed, and lockdown of an entire neighborhood, what if the biggest casualty is the truth?

The lives of these three women intertwine when coincidence, accident and opportunity collide. In Gimme Lao!-style hilarity, they become wrapped up in a web of deception and intrigue. This perceptive, fast-paced satire asks "what if" of the recent riot that shook Singapore.
