From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of
These Violent Delights and Our Violent Ends comes the
“equal parts intoxicating and dazzling” (Roshani
Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author of The Gilded
Wolves) first book in a captivating new duology following an
ill-matched pair of spies posing as a married couple to
investigate a series of brutal murders in 1930s Shanghai.
It’s 1931 in Shanghai, and the
stage is set for a new decade of intrigue.
Four
years ago, Rosalind Lang was brought back from the brink of
death, but the strange experiment that saved her also
stopped her from sleeping and aging—and allows her to
heal from any wound. In short, Rosalind cannot die. Now,
desperate for redemption for her traitorous past, she uses
her abilities as an assassin for her country.
Code name: Fortune.
But when the Japanese
Imperial Army begins its invasion march, Rosalind’s
mission pivots. A series of murders is causing unrest in
Shanghai, and the Japanese are under suspicion.
Rosalind’s new orders are to infiltrate foreign
society and identify the culprits behind the terror plot
before more of her people are killed.
To reduce
suspicion, however, she must pose as the wife of another
Nationalist spy, Orion Hong, and though Rosalind finds
Orion’s cavalier attitude and playboy demeanor
infuriating, she is willing to work with him for the greater
good. But Orion has an agenda of his own, and Rosalind has
secrets that she wants to keep buried. As they both attempt
to unravel the conspiracy, the two spies soon find that
there are deeper and more horrifying layers to this mystery
than they ever imagined.
