A Life of Crime with Shamini Flint

“Low Crime doesn’t mean No Crime!” Sounds familiar?

This slogan might be one of the reasons why many people do not associate ‘crime fiction’ with the Asian novel. Indeed, very few Asian writers have successfully dipped their toes into the bloody bath of crime fiction writing.

Have you ever come across the Inspector Singh Investigates series by Shamini Flint? Join her and Inspector Singh (“It's impossible not to warm to the portly, sweating, dishevelled, wheezing Inspector Singh” – The Guardian) as she takes us on a journey through the back streets of Asia. Shamini’s latest book on crime fiction Inspector Singh Investigates: The Singapore School of Villainy set in Singapore will also be discussed in this session. Who knows, you might also pick up tips how to get started on your own crime story in Singapore! Shamini Flint, an ex-lawyer, stay-at-home mum, environmental activist and writer, will also explain why she believes crime fiction is a great prism through which we can explore the tensions within modern Asian society.
