Flowers in the Mirror Series: Shanghai Late Camellia

A Republican-era mystery novel with no supernatural phenomena.

A scheming, mysterious younger man versus a gentle older woman, his unattainable ideal.

At first, the woman has a "fiance," while the younger man discreetly tries to steal her away.

Is the truth black or white? Are you the victim or the culprit? Am I real or false?

This world is on the brink of collapse. Morality? Truth? Right and wrong? The body we wear? Everything is an illusion except my love for you.
