As 1920s China teeters on the verge of civil war, two Oxford graduates return to the land of their birth.
By the age of 21 Catherine Cabot has already witnessed more death and hardship than anyone should have to in a lifetime. A nursing veteran of the Great War, and the Russian Revolution, she is beautiful, headstrong, and complicated, just like her mother. Now all she wants is to lay the ghosts of her past.
Her friend, Yu Fu-kuei, is a revolutionary and a communist spy determined to sacrifice herself and anyone else for her career.
Caught up in a triangular love affair, Catherine is drawn into China's struggle. As warlords and nationalists tear each other to pieces, and Japanese militants wait for an excuse to invade, Catherine becomes the pawn of two men who will stop at nothing to wreck their revenge. Meanwhile, Fu, betraying and betrayed, discovers that love might be her strongest weapon.
More than the lives of the two women are at stake when they meet in the furnace of war.
Soft cover, very good condition.
