The International Bestseller: Captivating, New York Times, Dazzling, Financial Times, A cracking good read, Historical Novel Society, SLAVE. ESCAPE-ARTIST. MURDERER. TERRORIST. SPY. LOVER. MOTHER. TRICKSTER.
At the Golden Sunset retirement home, it is not unusual for residents to invent stories. So, when elderly Ms. Mook first begins to unravel her memories, the obituarist listening to her is skeptical. Stories of captivity, friendship, murder, assumed identities, and spying. A life that moves from WWII Indonesia to Busan during the Korean war; from the cold-war Pyongyang to a Protestant church in China. The adventures are so colorful and various, at times so unbelievable. Surely, they can't all belong to the same woman. Can they?
As playful and thought-provoking as it is compelling, as brutal and harrowing as it is achingly poignant and tender, this is a novel about love and war, deceit and betrayal, about identity, storytelling, and the trickery required for survival.
