An intimate story of two different cultures and a woman caught between them . . .
A Chinese doctor in a southern English town, Ju Lin's lonely life is changed when Lucy walks into her acupuncture clinic. Ju Lin is trying to escape a failed marriage and the memory of her unwitting betrayal, as a child, of her beloved grandfather during the Cultural Revolution. She is also haunted by thoughts of her daughter, Tiantian, who has returned to China with her estranged husband. Lucy is a woman who has everything - a loving husband and a beautiful child. Their friendship becomes a lifeline, but it also unlocks in Ju Lin the memories of the past she has strived so hard to bury.
