she return to the family that rejected her years ago Falling Leaves
Return to their Roots is both the enthralling story of a Chinese

girl's unrelenting will to survive. __________ 'Falling Leaves is a

endurance and the cost it can exact. Gripping' Daily Telegraph 'An
illuminating account of the destructive nature of family
relationships set against a backdrop of China in change' Mail on
Sunday 'An act, not of vengeance or bitterness, but of catharsis'
