Seven female expats decide to write a book about a female expat gone missing in China's party city. Given the expat lifestyle, this could be comic, sorrowful, sordid or morbid.
How to make a "Shanghai Cocktail:" take one missing female expat, add a conspiracy, fold in a few life crises, lots of detail and true experience, add a twist of comedy. Shake well and garnish with a twist of fate.
This is the description of a new and unique book written by seven women expats belonging to "Brits Abroad" (including one Canadian and one Australian) who merged their city experiences to create a mystery novel about a woman missing under suspicious circumstances in Shanghai.
It offers up the familiar sights and many of the familiar funny, touching and aggravating experiences. Some sad and dark ones, as well. And it's told from the point of view of professional women who traveled here because of their husbands' work and had to find their own way, make their own adjustments.
Shanghai Cocktail, written by Lucinda Lee Austin (an anagram of the seven authors' initials - Carrie Bonell, Trudi Clarke, Julie Crofts, Lorna Hinde, Anne Jones, Linda Stanbridge and Debbie Thompson), is going on sale today online and promises a different read in a familiar city.
