Book
Lei Ling Wen is lonely. Bored of her demanding after-school schedule of tuition, study and violin lessons, she struggles to see eye to eye with her strict Chinese-Malaysian mother. When Lei Ling is befriended by elegant, worldly socialite Gigi Nu, she is enchanted by the realm of luxury and freedom that suddenly opens up to her. Gigi encourages Lei Ling to flout her routines and treats her to designer products and expensive meals. Soon Lei Ling finds herself caught between two lives, and increasingly at odds with her exasperated mother. Then tragedy strikes, and Lei Ling discovers long-held secrets that lead her to question everything she thought she knew about eh two central women in her life, and the friendship she'd held at the heart of it.
