Born in early-twentieth-century Shanghai Banks was orphaned at the age of nine after the separate disappearances of his parents. Now more than twenty years later he is a celebrated figure in London society; yet the investigative expertise that has garnered him fame has done little to illuminate the circumstances of his parents' alleged kidnappings. Banks travels to the seething labyrinthine city of his memory in hopes of solving the mystery of his own painful past only to find that war is ravaging Shanghai beyond recognition-and that his own recollections are proving as difficult to trust as the people around him. Masterful suspenseful and psychologically acute When We Were Orphans offers a profound meditation on the shifting quality of memory and the possibility of avenging one’s past.</p> Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group hardcover
