Description
In 1926, Shanghai is a city of chaos, where rival gangs and a monster in the depths of the Huangpu River threaten to destroy the balance of power. At the heart of this turmoil is Juliette Cai, a former flapper who has returned to assume her role as the proud heir of the Scarlet Gang. But when the lines between loyalty and betrayal become blurred, Juliette must set aside her guns and grudges to work with her first love, Roma Montagov, to stop a deadly contagion that is spreading rapidly through the city. As the deaths pile up, Juliette and Roma must navigate their complicated past and present to prevent a catastrophe that could destroy them both.
