This is the story of two lovers and two great dynasties--one British, the other Chinese--and of the society that separated them and the passion that bound them. Opulence, terror, and forbidden passion prevail in 1930s Singapore. The country is as rich as its climate is steamy, and its bright future seems all but assured. Against all the unwritten canons of Singapore life, a wealthy British man falls in love with the daughter of an aristocratic Chinese family. Their love grows despite opposition from both of their families--and the imminent outbreak of war.

An astonishing fictional debut . . . A great read - Daily Mail

'An exceedingly good book, and one of the can't put down variety . . . a winner' M M Kaye, author of The Far Pavilions - M M Kaye, author of The Far Pavilions

Noel Barber has always done everything in a big way, with style, panache and a dash of adventure. But he has never written a story of such dimensions, such a sense of history and imagination as this first novel . . . it is an intensely gripping and convincing story - Manchester Evening News

Barber is a master - Mail on Sunday
