When I was little, Father told me, “A Mian, the human heart is the hardest thing in this world to fathom. Never trust anyone completely, no matter the circumstances.” Father had weathered many years in the political arena, so I believed him.
Later, disaster struck our family. In a single night, I was left all alone from the once-mighty Qin family. I did not even know who had slaughtered my entire family. Lost and bewildered, I discovered clues among the keepsakes Father had left me, and set out to find the truth. Along the way, I met a warm, cheerful woman and a man who protected and loved me...
But is the truth really what I think I see?
