•The construction company Bergerbild is building a metro system in Malaysia. The commercial project manager Sean McCabe has been found dead in his hotel bedroom in Kuching. The chief financial officer for Bergerbild, Frank Churchill, has asked Emily Lee from the New York to check if the project finances are in order. But how did Sean really die?
