About the Book:
The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel is a thrilling, electrifying epic based on the incredible true story of a Chinese princess who was transformed into a spy. In 1914, young Eastern Jewel, an eight-year-old princess in Peking, is caught spying on her father’s affair with a servant girl. As punishment, she is banished from the palace and sent to Japan to live with a powerful family. Renamed Yoshiko Kawashima, she quickly falls in love with her adoptive country, where she earns a scandalous reputation—taking fencing lessons, smoking opium, and entertaining numerous lovers.
Yoshiko’s life takes another dramatic turn when she is sent to Mongolia with the intention of becoming an obedient wife. However, she bravely mounts a daring escape and returns to Peking, where her life takes on a new twist when she finds herself working as a spy for the Japanese Secret Service.
This compelling and vivid historical epic reimagines the life of a rebellious woman who earned a controversial place in history. With rich tales of palace intrigue, sexual manipulation, and international espionage, The Private Papers of Eastern Jewel is a captivating journey into the life of a woman whose defiance shaped her destiny.
