Set against the backdrop of World War II, the narrative follows the Samuels family as they escape Nazi Germany, only to face new challenges in Japanese-occupied Shanghai. Dr. Samuels sacrifices his family's safety for a chance to treat the drug-addicted wife of Emperor Pu Yi, leading to a separation from his wife and daughter. As tensions escalate after Pearl Harbor, Esther navigates life in Japan alongside a geisha, while the family's struggles intertwine with the sons of another family, culminating in a dramatic confrontation in Shanghai's Yu Yuan gardens.
