In a distant matriarchal land, a woman's passions for two American brothers spell love and lust, jealousy and betrayal, in a suspenseful historical novel by the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The Last Rose of Shanghai.1950s China. In a land of misty hot springs and star-kissed hills lives Lazo, a woman of the Moso people, who follow a matriarchal tradition where women freely choose their lovers and marriage doesn't exist. Lazo, beautiful and free-spirited, longs to become a mother.When two brothers, Noah and Adam Starlings, arrive stranded and starving, they are met with Lazo's generosity. Adam, a charming artist with a restless heart, is intrigued by the no-marriage custom, but Noah, a physician with a traumatic past, values fidelity above all.
