'Brilliantly written, masterful storytelling, and hard to put down. This story will stay with me for a very, very long time' HEATHER MORRIS, author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz

China, 1800s. Little Flower is sold as a muizai to Linjing's family when they are both only children. Jealous of her new handmaiden's ladylike bound feet and talent for embroidery, Linjing ensures Little Flower can never leave her to ascend in society.

Despite their different places in the household, over the years the two must put aside their bitter rivalry to secure both their futures through Linjing's marriage . . . Until scandal strikes the family, and Linjing and Little Flower's lives are thrown into chaos.

Linjing's fall from grace could be an opportunity for Little Flower - but will their intertwined fates lead to triumph, or tragedy for them both?
