Summer of the Three Pagodas by Jean Moran

5 March 2020 By Editor

Hong Kong, 1950.

Buy Summer of the Three Pagodas by Jean Moran

Now the war is over, Dr Rowena Rossiter is ready to plan a new life with her great love, Connor O’Connor. But before they can, bad news arrives.

A female doctor is urgently needed in Seoul and the powers that be want Rowena to go. She refuses – until rumours begin to swirl about the sinister, beautiful man who held her captive during the war.

They say he may still be alive and looking for her. By comparison, Korea on the brink of war seems safer, but will Rowena ever truly be able to escape the shadows of her violent past?

A brilliantly exotic saga set in post-war Hong Kong and Korea, where Rowena Rossiter longs to follow her heart, and her love, but the shadows of a violent past threaten to engulf her.

Summer of the Three Pagodas by Jean Moran is published on 5 March, 2020.
