Stunning a story of great spender Chloe Gong you’ve hooked me in and I’m here for good.
This story is about 2 spies who are forced into working a mission together posing as a married couple to try and discover who is behind Shanghai’s chemical killings. This book is based in true Chinese events fictionalised for the readers pleasure. It’s a fantastic idea and Gong’s execution of prose topped my wildest expectations. Honestly adored this and will be picking up all future work.
“He had gone beyond getting attached to her. She was his guiding saint, the polaris of his heart.”
