About the Book

YuLan, a sentimental girl pretty as her name, born and raised in the cold and arid land but international city of Harbin in Manchuria, China, had the fortune, or perhaps misfortune, of meeting and falling in love with double secret agent Wang JianHao in the beginning of the Sino-Japanese war. The lovers were tragically parted for over four decades by the war while the undying love between them sustained YuLan through a life time of tragedy and hardship in the war-torn country. In the same period of time, Wang's will to live and will to be reunited with his love helped him stay one step ahead of the deadly consequences of his double life. As YuLan fights to stay alive, Wang's fight for his beliefs plunges him headlong into the historic Xian Incident, the event that rocked the world and changed the modern history of China. The author takes the readers through the heart wrenching sorrow of lovers departing, misery and tragedy of life in a war-torn country, hair raising atrocities of the Imperial Japanese Army in the vast land it invaded, and the intriguing twists and turns of power struggle and espionage in politics of peri-WWII China. In Chinese, YuLan means "JADE ORCHID". In this novel, "YuLan" translates into a fascinating ride that is one part romance and one part thriller.
About the Author: The author Hon K. Poon, MD, FACS is a retired general surgeon. "Pahn Hanji" is his pseudonym for publishing. Born in Hong Kong in 1946, Dr. Poon received his surgical education in the United States and practiced as a general surgeon for thirty years in the mid south of America before retiring to a career of creative writing. He now lives in Las Vegas. Because of his ethnic background, he is knowledgeable enough in modern Chinese history to make this book an intriguing fiction overlaid on a true historical event. He is also the author of a recently published memoir "JOURNAL OF A COUNTRY SURGEON" available on amazon.com.
