A bond between twin sisters, a tale of bitter grievances. She is you in the mirror, yet the hatred in her heart is hard to unravel.
She slowly walked toward the mirror, watching the person in it approach her. Suddenly, a cold dagger pierced through the glass and plunged into her chest!
In truth, it was no mirror. The two Peng sisters simply had identical faces. Beneath their matching appearances, however, lay two very different hearts.
Disputes over property and turmoil in their love lives drove their vastly different souls to intertwine like vines, twisting their hearts out of shape. Suspicion and jealousy filled them with fear; lost in a whirlpool, they could not escape their grudges and revenge... Until the moment they awakened, they seemed to have been baptized in purgatory. Sadly, by then, it was too late.
This strange, unsettling world is like a mirror. It records outward beauty and ugliness, but cannot reflect the goodness or evil within the soul...
Note: The book is told through flashbacks and first-person accounts. Mr. Li comes to Tonglai City as a passerby and happens to hear the story of the Peng sisters. Intrigued, he pieces together a tale of growth, fate, love, and hatred through the accounts of Xuanli, Xuanhui, Ziyao, and others.
