Natalie Naudus narrates a fantasy novel loosely inspired by Chinese history. Ruying lives in an occupied city, and her righteous fury at the occupiers knows no bounds. Naudus captures all the rage and hopelessness that Ruying feels at her situation: She is the granddaughter of a general who lost the city and the daughter of a father who failed to care for his children. As Ruying attempts to protect herself and her sister however she can, Naudus delves into the raw depths of her emotional turmoil. An ill-advised love affair increases the messy emotional complexity Naudus portrays so well. An author's note read by the author provides historical context.
