J G Ballard's Empire of the Sun meets Susan Hill's The Woman in
Black in a compelling teen thriller ... Ruby - a Western girl who
feels more Chinese than English - and her friend Charlie must
follow the Yangtze hundreds of miles upriver, travelling by Chinese
junk and rogue steamer, through bandit and ghost haunted
countryside - doggedly tracking Moonface as he spirits Charlie's
sister Fei off to his home village. Everything is in flux around
them: civil war pulsing, with Nationalists, Communists and warlord
bandits struggling for control. The river rises and falls, villages
spring up and are gone again. Ruby and Charlie brave a shipwreck
and a gunbattle and then take a perilous cliff path to Moonface's
lair.
