The plot follows John Dexter, heir to a financial empire, and Julie Soong, daughter of one of the most powerful Chinese families in Singapore. Their forbidden love faces the social and cultural barriers of a British Malaya in the 1930s, and the story spans the Japanese occupation through to the birth of a nation.
The work was originally published in 1981; this 1988 Italian edition belongs to the BUR Superbur collection (number 33) and bears the subtitle «Il romanzo di Singapore».
For readers of family sagas and historical romances set in colonial Southeast Asia and the Second World War.
