Death of a Perm Sec is a 2016 novel written by Singaporean playwright, former political detainee, and former Chairman of the Singapore Democratic Party Dr Wong Souk Yee.[1] The book depicts the mystery and fallout surrounding the demise of the Permanent Secretary of the housing ministry, Chow Sze Teck, after he was accused of accepting millions of dollars in bribes over his career. The novel explores the dark heart of power politics, from the country’s tumultuous post-independence days to the socio-political landscape of the 1980s. Death of a Perm Sec was one of four finalists for the inaugural Epigram Books Fiction Prize in 2015,[2] and was subsequently shortlisted for the Singapore Literature Prize in 2018.[3]
