The Accidental Malay by Karina Robles Bahrin

Jasmine Leong wants to be the next CEO of Phoenix, her family's billion-ringgit company known especially for its bak kwa.

But when Jasmine discovers she is actually a Malay Muslim, her newfound identity threatens to upend her life and ambitions.

Set in Kuala Lumpur and other areas of Malaysia, The Accidental Malay examines the human cost of a country's racial policies, and paints a portrait of a woman unwilling to accept the fate history has designated for her.
