Had already read The Jewel of St Petersburg but think I enjoyed this follow on more than the first book. The title is a bit deceiving as the book is set in China, not Russia, so I learned a little bit about the Communists and how they fought to gain control of the country. The description of life in China at that time seemed realistic to me and I found this book quite hard to put down. Looking forward to reading the sequel Under a Blood Red Sky.
