Just posted on another thread about this - I really liked this book. I thought the jump between the 1950s and the war years was very good and I really got into the characters. I loved the Hong Kong setting as I have been there a couple of times and could really picture where it all took place.

| I enjoyed it too. Never been to Hong Kong but found the story fascinating and made me want to find out more. |

Quite easily. If you saw my house you would know why. It is getting better but is taking a while.
