The ruby in the smoke

Now, Sally decides to start working with the photographer guy, and she gets some money. Then she and Frederick (the photographer) go out and rescue a man from the clutches of the evil old woman. After they free him, he tells Sally that her father was killed by a man named Ang Li. Sally is surprised because she thought that her father's boat sank, and that's why he was killed. ( The man who they rescued was there during Sally's father's death).

During this chapter I felt really bored because the person who wrote the book was not getting me interested in her father's death. I have read many mysteries that are MUCH better than this book.
Sadly... this is the worst book that I have ever read.
