Program Description

Details

A young “national model worker,” renowned for her adherence to the principles of the Communist Party, turns up dead in a Shanghai canal. As Inspector Chen Cao of the Shanghai Special Cases Bureau struggles to trace the hidden threads of her past, he finds himself challenging the very political forces that have guided his life since birth.

This virtual event is in conjunction with Lake Forest Reads: Ragdale, our One Book/One Community program featuring "Searching for Sylvie Lee" by Jean Kwok. For more details go to lfreads.org
