What does the immediate future hold for Su Lin and Le Froy?
Singapore 1947, and Su Lin and Le Froy start their married life with a honeymoon in the Cameron Highlands, an idyllic pocket of English countryside in the tropical rainforest, on assignment to protect a rubber plantation owner and his wife who fled there after the murder of their neighbours.
Threats and ghostly sightings follow Boss Max and his wife, escalating after Elfrieda vanishes, leaving nothing but a cache of rotting fruit from the rose apple tree outside her lodge. Boss Max is desperate-his precious emeralds are missing along with his beautiful wife...
Trapped in the isolated area until the monsoon floods subside, Su Lin had hoped to use the time to get to know her new husband but then when Boss Max is founded murdered in a locked room with more rose apples scattered around the corpse, she and Le Froy must work together try to prevent further deaths --including theirs.
