Taking a cold case as her blade, she tears open a century of secrets within the Jiang family. Her former lover closes in at every turn, and her former mentor’s silence is shrouded in mystery. Yet on her path to revenge, she weaves a web with traitors, orphans, and those who refuse to speak, a web sharper than the law itself. When the truth finally comes to light, she understands at last: she doesn’t want him to regret losing her. She wants him to never again deserve the woman who once burned herself out for him.
