About This Novel
In the autumn of 1937, Xiafei Road in the French Concession in Shanghai was shrouded in drizzle. Tailor Lin Suyi was quietly embroidering cheongsam in front of the window. However, due to the sudden visit of a female spy, her fate was completely changed. This seemingly ordinary custom-made cheongsam task actually hid a mystery. Behind it was a crucial defense map on the eve of the Songhu Battle, which attracted the attention of all parties and pursued them. From then on, Lin Suyi was deeply involved in the whirlpool of the espionage war, and bloody storms followed one after another. She traveled through Shanghai where light and darkness clashed, using needle and thread as a blade, and maneuvering between dangers with wisdom and courage. In the process of uncovering the secrets left behind by her father, she discovered that the past was closely connected with the present spy murder. When the cheongsam becomes a weapon and the needlework becomes a mechanism, how will she fight for her love and hatred for her country in this undercurrent of war? Can she break out of the tight encirclement in this life-and-death game and continue to write her own legend?

The plot has ups and downs, very good.
This book brings warmth to history and brings legend into reality. Deep in the national memory, there are always some thrilling stories hidden among the babbling tones of Wu dialect, waiting to be played and sung again. 😷😷
Good article, worth reading, twelve likes.
It has strong ideological and educational significance, the protagonist has a vivid and three-dimensional image, the rhythm is tight, the suspense is dense, and the links are interlocked. The espionage and cheongsam production are cleverly combined, there are many life-and-death crises and dangerous escapes, and the alliance and excitement of multiple forces. It is gripping and worth reading. I give the author a thumbs up.
The plot is compact, full of suspense, gripping, and worth reading.
