This novel is a captivating historical fiction set in Vienna during the late 1930s, a time of great persecution for the Jewish community. Shy and ill at ease with the societal obligations of diplomats’ wives, Grace is an outsider in a city beginning to feel the sweep of the Nazi dragnet. Weina Dai Randel is the award-winning author of The Last Rose of Shanghai as well as The Moon in the Palace and The Empress of Bright Moon, a historical duology about Wu Zetian, China’s only female emperor. I wrote this novel because I wanted readers to know that a hero has many faces, he can be someone you have never heard of, and he can be a she, and most importantly, there is a hero inside every one of us if we choose to care.Ho, who was so intent on his career in diplomacy, find himself married to a woman from an extremely impoverished background with very limited ability to learn foreign languages.

This is a safety measure for the Shinga, for as Durzo puts it: "Shingas who aren't paranoid don't live very long. Ho’s work involves developing good international relations, as the Chinese are currently at war with Japan.

Night Angels by Weina Dai Randel is based on the true story of Dr Ho Fengshan, a Chinese diplomat in Vienna whose courageous action allowed thousands of Jews to escape the clutches of the Nazis. I gave up at around the 25% mark because there are so many good books out there just waiting for me to read them.

I've been a bit tired of the abundance of WWII fiction lately, but when I heard Weina Dai Randel was releasing another novel, I knew I wouldn't be disappointed.Momma K was the Cenarian Shinga for over fifteen years, hiding behind various puppet Shingas to keep her identity a secret. The Campaign garnered nearly 100 mentions in the days following its launch across media channels including TV, radio and online news. One family saved leads to thousands more, and all the while the stakes become higher—and more dangerous. It is about how people are beat down but still survive with their basic humanity still intact, but with scars they carry with them throughout their lives.
