Editorial Review

Two historical-fiction queens join forces
Ever since her 2017 novel The Alice Network, Kate Quinn has been an automatic download for me (with The Rose Code being a particular favorite). Her stories are based on real people, are super well-researched, always have heroines that I’m rooting for within the first 10 minutes of listening, and are masterfully structured to maximize suspense. I was intrigued to see that for her latest she has a co-author for the first time, Janie Chang, a fellow bestselling historical fiction writer. This listen was my first by Chang, but after this one—about the colliding lives of several fascinating women amid the 1906 San Francisco earthquake—I’ll be digging more into her catalog for sure. This story didn’t miss a step of what I’ve come to expect from Quinn, and these two minds working together only made the work richer. — Audible Editor, Phoebe N.

Fascinating Historical Details • Compelling Storyline • Mesmerizing Narration • Well-researched History

There’s a lot to love about this jewel of a book, showing a more full picture of the San Francisco earthquake than I’ve read to date. I loved everything about it, from the pitch perfect narrations, to China Town and all its accoutrements and personalities, to the Opera, to the wickedness of mankind and loveliness of friends and strangers. The authors’ notes really surprised me, too—I didn’t expect so much to be based on truth! (And it helped me understand why the technical parts of the opera portrayal were so accurate, 👏).

I am big Kate Quinn fan. I have read all her books and love the great details, character development and twists and turns along the way. The time period and setting of a countdown to the SF earthquake is exciting and I so wanted to love this book. I didn't care about any of the characters as I normally do in her books. The storyline didn't have its usual twists and turns. I liked the book but didn't love it.

I Wanted To Love This Book

I recommend this book for several reasons. First, it gives life to an historical event we know about from history books, the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, and second, it discloses American prejudices against the Chinese at that time. Otherwise, it's a story revolving around several women and a mob boss who collects them like he collects unusual plants and Chinese antiques. Enjoyable read, but not a masterpiece.

I enjoyed the characters lives and the historical events depicted - San Fran earthquake - the story was a bit over the top but it was fun nevertheless!

Another great one by Kate and my first exposure to Janie Chang. A beautiful story with complex characters woven together in phenomenal fashion.

Kate Quinn— the queen!
