  Everyone’s favorite moral philosopher and amateur sleuth, Isabel Dalhousie, is  
  back and once again finds herself facing a number of tricky situations and  
  philosophical questions, both public and private. 
  Isabel’s life has fallen into a comfortable and tidy rhythm. Well, as tidy as things  
  can be with two small boys wreaking havoc around the house. But when her  
  husband, Jamie, invites a woman named Dawn—recently embroiled in a  
  contentious affair with a member of Jamie’s orchestra—to stay with them, things  
  begin to go awry. Strange noises can be heard from the upper floor, even when  
  Dawn is supposedly at work, and the couple wonders whether something more  
  nefarious may be afoot. 
  If that weren’t enough, Professor Robert Lettuce is staging an academic  
  conference and has asked Isabel to publish the conference papers in a special  
  issue of the Review of Applied Ethics. But something is definitely suspect about  
  the funding, and it will be up to Isabel to sort it out. As the truth comes to light,  
  Isabel must once more rely on her kindness, powers of deduction and  
  philosophical expertise to navigate these sensitive matters.

  An intricate choreography of greed
  
  “I think of myself as the writer and master choreographer of a vast and elegant European-style ballet, in which all of the performers must move in precise unison and harmony to create a breathtaking display of dance in its most sublime form. The problem for me and 1MDB was that too many of my players simply blew their parts.” So concludes Jho Low, Malaysian businessman and mastermind of the notorious 1MDB scandal, as he narrates this fictional account of the affair. All told, Jho Low siphoned $4.5 billion from a Malaysian sovereign wealth fund.
  
  This imagined retelling of Jho Low’s story, based on real events, gives readers an insider’s view of the glitzy, glamorous world of wealth and privilege, as well as a close-up look at this enigmatic protagonist’s high-stakes fall from grace. The narrator is quirky yet eloquent, at times thoughtful and other times brash, as he leads readers through the corridors of power, where the line between friend and foe blurs. As secrets unravel and fortunes teeter on the edge, readers get a front-row seat to the dark underbelly of high finance and the price of unchecked ambition and greed.
