Synopsis

Since her mother died when she was ten, Elizabeth Kingsley has accompanied her father on his travels across Europe, much to the detriment of her extraordinary musical talent. A teenager when her father dies, Elizabeth turns to his good friend Adam Harland for comfort and guidance, and despite the twenty-year age gap, they marry. As the threat of war hangs over Europe - and not just Europe - Adam takes his young wife away from a burgeoning career as a concert pianist to Hong Kong, where if the Japanese invade, as he suspects they will, Adam hopes to defend his country.In Hong Kong they soon make friends with the sophisticated expatriate community. But one man they determine not to befriend is Raefe Elliot, a part-Chinese American who scandal follows around as sure as night follows day. Elizabeth tries to stay away from Raefe, a notorious womanizer, but he is the only man who has ever truly understood her. And on the eve of the Japanese invasion of Hong Kong, Elizabeth is forced to make a momentous decision, one that will shatter not only her own life, but the lives of those she loves as well.
