About this listen

A haunting, evocative and highly unusual romantic debut and now a Netflix Mandarin original drama!

Seventeen-year-old Li Lan lives in 1890s Malaya with her quietly ruined father, who returns one evening with a proposition - the fabulously wealthy Lim family want Li Lan to marry their son. The only problem is, he's dead. After a fateful visit to the Lim mansion, Li Lan finds herself haunted not only by her ghostly would-be suitor, but also her desire for the Lims' handsome new heir. At night she is drawn into the Chinese afterlife - a world of ghost cities, paper funeral offerings, monstrous bureaucracy and vengeful spirits. Enlisting the help of mysterious Er Lang (a dragon turned clerk), Li Lan must uncover the secrets of the ghost world - before she becomes trapped there forever.

This is the third book of Yangsze's I have read and it's so hard for me to pick a favourite because all of them are so good! She is an amazing storyteller and really brings the characters to life! Her writing style is so enjoyable to listen to and the stories are so interesting too. Can't wait for her to hopefully write more books!
