Shanghai is a city of shifting fortunes. Jiang Wanxin, daughter of a once-mighty shipping magnate, has fallen from the heights of wealth. Zhang Yiheng, her childhood sweetheart, mysteriously vanished on the eve of a banquet, leaving no trace.
Years later, they meet again. He has become an important Guomindang intelligence officer, impeccably dressed in a suit, his gaze as deep as the sea. Her fingertips brush the fabric, calm on the surface, with hidden turbulence beneath. Zhang Yiheng’s return tears open a mystery long buried.
As trust and suspicion intertwine, and family vengeance collides with the fate of the nation, the two join forces once more in Shanghai’s treacherous underworld. With needles and scissors as their blades and a silent war as their song, they stitch together their faith and love in the darkest hour before dawn.
“What you think was a chance reunion was something he planned for years. What you think was a parting of ways was his willingness to risk everything.”
