An easy read novel telling the story of a young girl of Russian descent, born in Harbin when it was Manchuria (it is now in China), and her life after the defeat of the Japanese in WWII. It follow her from Harbin to Shanghai, to the Philippines and Australia.
Tidily written, holds suspense throughout, and despite being 580 pages is an easy read.
