Excerpt from the Book

Her passport—stamped and valid—her national ID, and her cell phone, which had a crack in the screen, the result of her dropping it from her moped in 2020. The envelope had also included some cash—four hundred yuan in mixed bills, worn soft. Had it been the warden’s money? Remembering her look of compassion, Mei Lin thought so.

It had paid for a ticket out of town. She might be able to squeeze a few meals out of what was left, but it wouldn’t last long. It wouldn’t get her out of China and to the life in the West she’d once planned.

The final things she’d found in the envelope were her engagement ring and wedding band, both barely worn.

The rings were too large now, sliding on her bony finger, and she worried they’d fall off if she didn’t pay attention. She should put them somewhere safe.

But safe didn’t exist for Mei Lin.

The sparkling diamond blurred in her vision. She’d believed everything Ethan had said to her. She’d been so sure of his love. But he’d never come for her, never even written.

She knew exactly why she’d been trapped in that prison—and exactly who had arranged it.
