In 1950s French Indochina, Nicole, a young woman of mixed French and Vietnamese heritage, lives in the shadow of her older sister, Sylvie. When Sylvie inherits the family silk business, Nicole is entrusted with a small, abandoned silk shop in Hanoi's Vietnamese quarter, a place teeming with militant rebels. As she navigates this environment, Nicole uncovers the corruption of the colonial regime and is forced to question her own family's loyalties. Torn between two worlds and two loves—the insurgent Tran and the charming American merchant Mark—Nicole must find her own path amidst instability and danger. This captivating novel by Dinah Jefferies is an unforgettable story of identity, sisterly rivalry, and love in times of war, set against a lush and exotic backdrop.
