Enter the world of an elite Chinese family: a life of luxury, limitless power, and around-the-clock service, which includes their trusted nanny Yu Ling.
Slipping in and out of the shadows, careful to speak deferentially, meticulous in her care of their only son Kuan Kuan, Yu has served the family for years and knows their secrets. But little do they suspect that Yu has secrets of her own.
In the pressure-cooker political environment of China, the fates of even the most powerful families can reverse overnight. When Kuan Kuan's father and grandfather are arrested and his socialite mother goes on the run, Yu is left behind to make a series of life-changing choices.
Will she be able to outrun her own past, and how far will she go to claim what she considers her due?
A tight modern thriller about an elite family's downfall, power and corruption, Women, Seated by Zhang Yueran (translated by Jeremy Tiang) is publishing in paperback on the 24th February.
