Opis

In 1937, when the war between China and Japan reached Shanghai, the city's Western administrators declared neutrality, and the International Settlement and French Concession were spared from Japanese occupation. But behind the facade of prosperity the city was the scene of political intrigue, violence and assassination. In 1941 the whole of Shanghai was annexed by Japan, and the Chinese and Europeans had to find their own ways of surviving until liberation.
