'Tom has been sent to his Uncle Richard while his mother is in hospital. Tom is fascinated by the decor of the house and the enticing smells coming from the kitchen; both of which are influenced by Richard's wife Mei-Ling's Chinese heritage. When Tom finds a strange temple in the bush, he stumbles into something more unusual than he could have imagined...' (Source: Word Press website)
