I've seen this book billed as a mystery but I wouldn't say that it, not really. While there's a mystery underlying the story, it's not really the point. What you actually get is a story about the resilience and failures of family, insight into the impact heroin can have on a community, and a look into what it's like to be Vietnamese in Australia. Beautiful but heartbreaking.
