Ruby - a Western girl who feels more Chinese than English -  and her friend Charlie must follow the Yangtze hundreds of miles upriver, travelling by Chinese junk and rogue steamer, through bandit and ghost haunted countryside - doggedly tracking Moonface as he spirits Charlie's sister Fei off to his home village. Everything is in flux around them: civil war pulsing, with Nationalists, Communists and warlord bandits struggling for control. The river rises and falls, villages spring up and are gone again. Ruby and Charlie brave a shipwreck and a gunbattle and then take a perilous cliff path to Moonface's lair.","brand":"Scotia Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42940230303927,"sku":"9781444924497","price":6.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/5629\/7143\/files\/9781444924497_bd3ef88d-cd93-4ff4-bd4b-f3a85ff278e0.jpg?v=1757055608","url":"https:\/\/www.scotiabooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781444924497","provider":"scotia-books-online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
