Loved the characters - they were flawed but strong.
Loved the way Mandarin was incorporated in the novel, as well as Shanghai's historical background.
There was so much suspense that my fingers were itching.
The ending was great - though heartbreaking, sad and horrifying. It makes me look forward to book to!
