The narrative dives deep into Lydia's identity as she grapples with her Chinese-American heritage, unveiling layers of family secrets and historical tensions that resonate throughout her investigations.
Alongside her partner, Bill Smith, Lydia navigates the intricate web of relationships and cultural nuances that define the community. As they uncover clues linked to a mysterious "paper son," a term referring to Chinese immigrants who gained entry to the U.S. under false identities, the duo must confront not only external dangers but also their own biases and assumptions.
The immersive writing showcases Rozan's understanding of the rich tapestry of immigrant experiences, creating a compelling backdrop for a tale that is as much about the search for truth as it is about self-discovery. With each twist and turn, readers are drawn into a gripping mystery, characterized by poignant reflections on identity and belonging.
