About the Book

An unemployed university graduate girl and an Occupy Wall Street terrorist leave in their wake a string of violent murders and newspaper headlines that catch the imagination of the Depression-struck Singapore. Singaporeans are proud to have been held up by them; to their victims, the duo is doing what nobody else has the guts to do. To the law, the two are terrorists who deserve to be gunned down where they stand.

About the Author

Lim's life was nearly as colorful as his fiction, which was semi-autobiographical, or, at least, inspired by his experiences. Life in Singapore had been tough for him. The theme of a once-prominent protagonist overtaken by ill-fortune would feature in some of Lim's works.
