Description
The silence was eerie. None of the usual night noises. No beggars, no noodle vendors, no clatter of mahjong tiles.
"What can we do? Where shall we go?Who can take care of us?" Jade Moon Lee's voice was getting tenser and tenser.
A bullet zingged over the house. Another hit a tile on the roof and shattered it. The fragments fell into the pig pen.
There was a rush of feet in the lane outside. Then a shout, rough, with a northern accent. Then silence.
It was 1949 and the Communists had just arrived in the city of Chongqing in West China. For the Lee family, life would never be the same again.
