Two women, born to different worlds, tied unknowingly by blood -- and locked in bitter rivalry for theHighland estate, and the man they both lay claim to! Sophie -- wilful, entrancing toast of exotic Hong Kong blissfully immune to the deceitful deals, clash of cultures, and growing menace of the opium trade that threaten her beloved city. Rachel -- subtle and stubborn, plucked from the slums of Victorian London to a new life and status in the remote Scottishcastle ofJuran -- then faced with the loss of what has become her obsession. Ranier Blake -- clever, manipulative banker with interests inScotland andHong Kong -- and in both women. And Blake alone knows the tangled history of Rachel, Sophie and Juran! From vivid Hong Kong toScotland's stormy west coast, the two women play out their passions against a background of intrigue and violence. But only one can win what they both so desire!
