Once Our Lives is the amazing true story of four generations of Chinese women who bravely struggle to survive war, revolution and a mysterious ancient superstition that dramatically alters 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.
