China, 1937... US Marine Captain Harry Wagner is a hunted man, trapped in a city that is about to become a slaughterhouse. As the Empire of the Rising Sun expands its grip on China, a vengeful Japanese army closes in on the Chinese Nationalist capital, Nanjing. Hundreds of thousands of terrified civilians cower within the ancient walled city, together with a handful of selfless foreign missionaries - and Wagner. Intelligence reports warn of an impending bloodbath, but Wagner must stay to protect Fei, a young dancer with whom he has fallen in love. Will they both live through the coming massacre? And if they do, can Wagner save her from the horrors of sexual slavery as a Comfort Woman? From the louche glamour of 1930's Shanghai to the nightmarish "Rape of Nanjing", The Storm Flower recaptures a forgotten tragedy of modern history as a story of love that survives almost everything.
