Description
It's Chinese New Year, a time to celebrate...
Fresh from their honeymoon, Meddy and Nathan meet the Aunties in Jakarta for a family celebration. Amid the festivities, an old flame of Second Aunt's arrives with extravagant gifts. Unfortunately, not all the presents were meant for them.
NOT the time to start an all-out war.
The most important gift goes missing, putting Meddy and the Aunties in the middle of a feud between Jakarta's most powerful business moguls - and in great danger. To save her loved ones, Meddy must organise a search party, a break-in and a kidnapping. It might sound like an impossible mission- but with the Aunties by her side, nothing is impossible... just complicated.
