Pulse — Lydia Kwa

Set in contemporary Toronto and Singapore, Pulse is the story of Natalie, a native Singaporean transplanted to Toronto's Chinatown. When she hears the devastating news that Selim, the son of her old best friend (and former lover), has died in mysterious circumstances, she decides to return to Singapore to uncover the truth. Bound up in Selim's story is the relationship between Natalie and her father, a domineering man whose treatment of his daughter may be the key to understanding Selim's death.
