From fantasticfiction.co.uk:
The stunning new historical epic blockbuster from the author of THE PALACE OF HEAVENLY PLEASURE. Beautiful, headstrong and unconventional, Catherine Cabot is twenty years old when she arrives in China. Against an uneasy political background a bittersweet, triangular love affair develops between Catherine and Edmund and George Airton. And all the while, she is trying to uncover the truth of her past, unaware of the danger this might pose to her. Who is Henry Manners, the mysterious man who once wrote to her mother, and who she knows now lives in China? Returning to China alongside Catherine is Yu-Fu-kuei, a Chinese revolutionary working as a Communist spy. She and Catherine met when they were at Oxford immediately after the Great War, and the friendship is deep and permanent. As the Japanese mass themselves on the borders, waiting for an excuse to invade, Catherine, ignorant of a history steeped in hatred, unwittingly becomes the perfect tool to settle the scores of two men who will stop at nothing to wreak their revenge. And Yu-Fu-kuei discovers that love might be the strongest weapon that any warrior has.

評分没想到作者是个老外,看书名《乾隆的骨头》原以为会是一本关于乾隆的历史社科知识性的书,没想到是一本纯粹的小说,而且跟乾隆没有几毛钱关系。只是男主角某天捡到了一根乾隆的骨头,夜里做了一个梦,梦见自己当了主子。一个帝王梦,这真不是一般人敢做的梦,这种大梦说明...
