""Once Our Lives" is the true story of four generations of Chinese women and how their lives were threatened by powerful and cruel ancient traditions, historic upheavals, and a man whose fate-cursed by an ancient superstition--dramatically altered their destinies. The book takes the reader on an exotic journey filled with luxurious banquets, lost jewels, babies sold in opium dens, kidnappings by pirates, and a desperate flight from death in the desert--seen through the eyes of a man for whom the truth would spell disaster and a lonely, beautiful girl with three identities."--
