Mindgame

The career of ambitious young lawyer Fei-Li Qwong looks set to soar as she steers her major clients to the successful launch of their visionary sanitorium. Piers and Ginny Wyndham claim their Centre for Mental Health and Excellence will revolutionise Asia's health care practices. Fei is proud to be part of the team.

But Fei's professional success masks a turbulent private life as she tries in vain to reconcile her western education and outlook with the restrictions of life in Kuala Lumpur and the feminine qualities of charm, modesty and family-mindedness demanded of traditional Asian womanhood.

Her problems have only just begun. As she begins to uncover the dark reality behind the Wyndhams' public front, Fei finds herself drawn deep into a pall of intrigue and murder to a secret experiment that could enslave Asia under a terrifying new tyranny.
