CHLOE GONG - GEBRAUCHT THESE VIOLENT DELIGHTS -...

Perfect for fans of The Last Magician and Descendant of the Crane  this heart-stopping debut is
an imaginative Romeo and Juliet retelling set in 1920s Shanghai  with rival gangs and a monster
in the depths of the Huangpu River. The year is 1926  and Shanghai hums to the tune of
debauchery. A blood feud between two gangs runs the streets red  leaving the city helpless in
the grip of chaos. At the heart of it all is eighteen-year-old Juliette Cai  a former flapper
who has returned to assume her role as the proud heir of the Scarlet Gang-a network of
criminals far above the law. Their only rivals in power are the White Flowers  who have fought
the Scarlets for generations. And behind every move is their heir  Roma Montagov  Juliette's
first love...and first betrayal. But when gangsters on both sides show signs of instability
culminating in clawing their own throats out  the people start to whisper. Of a contagion  a
madness. Of a monster in the shadows. As the deaths stack up  Juliette and Roma must set their
guns-and grudges-aside and work together  for if they can't stop this mayhem  then there will
be no city left for either to rule.
