Ever since I did The Jasmine Wars, I’ve been wanting to return to fiction set in China, so I’m excited to announce my latest release, Threads of Silk. I loved Amanda Roberts’ beautiful writing, and got a thorough (yet interesting!) education of what happened during the last Chinese dynasty.
Born in the middle of nowhere, Yaqian, a little embroidery girl from Hunan Province, finds her way to the imperial court, a place of intrigue, desire, and treachery. From the bed of an Emperor, the heart of a Prince, and the right side of an Empress, Yaqian weaves her way through the most turbulent decades of China’s history and witnesses the fall of the Qing Dynasty.
