The China Plot dramatizes an epic that could well stand as a sequel to The Last Emperor . It reveals an enthralling chapter in Asian history that has been overlooked for eighty years.
In the l930's Pu-chieh, brother of the last emperor of China, was used by the Japanese military in an effort to establish a Japanese bloodline on the throne of China following their conquest of Manchuria.
The Kwangtung Army, Japan's army of occupation, with the cooperation of the military-political clique of pre-war Japan, selected as his partner for this task a demure, and very reluctant, young woman from the Japanese aristocracy.
The astonishing intrigue propelling Hiro Saga's marriage; the tumultuous story of her experiences in wartime China; her unforeseen love for Pu-chieh; the demise of the puppet country Manchukuo, and her courageous flight with a young daughter, from the Russians, Mao’s communists, bandits, republicans, and her eventual capture and escape, all make up the background of The China Plot.
