About The Red Pearls of Borneo

But on the night of December 16th, 1941, as the Japanese Imperial Navy loomed on the horizon, the estate fell into chaos. Sort through the lies. Reveal the faces of the strangers. Discover what truly happened in the Goodwill estate that fateful night. Can you piece together the truth before the memories fade?
