Benny Cooperman mysteries 12 : East of Suez

Benny Cooperman is about to hang up his gumshoes after an earlier brutal attack left him with serious memory problems. Then an old school friend shows up and begs Benny to find her missing husband, Jack Grange. His search takes him to Murinam in the Malay Peninsula, where he meets a bon-vivant priest, an attractive marine biologist, and an eccentric Englishman looking for kosher food, while the bodies pile up and Benny doggedly uncovers layer upon layer of deceit and intrigue.
