Death Doesn't Forget

More about the book

Jing-nan, the owner of a popular night market food stall, finds himself framed for a series of high-profile murders just as Taipei prepares for the Austronesian Cultural Festival. The city is shaken by the murders of a petty criminal and a police captain, and Jing-nan, who runs Unknown Pleasures, is caught in the midst of the chaos. As he navigates the intrigue, he must determine if he is being set up or if he could become the next victim. The situation threatens his relationship with Nancy, his graduate school girlfriend, who is grappling with her own issues, including reconciling with her estranged mother, who had ties to the deceased criminal and the dead cop. Additionally, Jing-nan must manage the challenges faced by his loyal workers, Dwayne and Frankie the Cat. Dwayne, of aboriginal descent, strives to honor his heritage while finding his path, while septuagenarian Frankie aids a fellow veteran in a world that seems to overlook their sacrifices. As Jing-nan confronts his greatest personal and professional hurdles, everything hangs in the balance, including his social media following.
