An ill-matched pair of spies pose as a couple to investigate a series of murders in 1930s Shanghai, in a new fantasy romance duology from the author of THESE VIOLENT DELIGHTS.
It's 1931 in Shanghai, and the stage is set for a new decade of intrigue.
Four years ago, Rosalind Lang was saved from the brink of death. Now she doesn't sleep or age - and can heal from any wound. Desperate for redemption from her traitorous past, she works as an assassin for her country. Code name: Fortune.
When a series of murders causes unrest in Shanghai, Rosalind's mission changes. Ordered to infiltrate foreign society and identify the culprits, she must pose as the wife of another spy, Orion Hong, to reduce suspicion.
