I'm always interested in things like that.<br /><br />Hi Serena - the middle part almost put me off this one but I did stick with it.

It just didn't seem to flow with the rest of the book for me. But I do agree - a great read other than that.<br /><br />Hi booklineandsinker - yeah - that's definitely how I would describe this one - a creeper and a stayer!<br /><br />Hi Kim - I think if you are living in Hong Kong than this book would be perfect for you. I have never been to Hong Kong but the author made me feel like I had in a way which was great.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971901652392645980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1433153409320048017.post-61641589141479969322009-06-07T20:32:20.077-07:002009-06-07T20:32:20.077-07:00I will definitely look out for this book, Karen. I...I will definitely look out for this book, Karen. I am living in Hong Kong at the moment and love to read books which are set in familiar territory. Hong Kong has such an interesting history and fictional stories like this just seem to add to it's rich past. Thank you for the review.

This book will certainly stick with me for a long time, especially that it set in my hometown during WW2. I miss Trudy after I finished the book.
