Writers June Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be rising stars at the same time. But Athena is a literary sensation, and June's novel doesn't sell. After all, no one in the modern world seems interested in stories about ordinary white girls.
So when June witnesses Athena's death in an accident, she acts impulsively: she steals a colleague's unfinished novel about the unknown heroism of Chinese workers on the front lines of World War I.
So what if June edits Athena's draft and sends it to a literary agent as her own work? So what if she allows her new publisher to publish it under the pseudonym Juniper Song and put an ethnically ambiguous photo of the author on the cover? When a story is worth telling, it doesn't matter who tells it, does it? At least, that's what June thinks, and the New York Times bestseller list confirms it.
But the girl can't escape Athena's shadow, and emerging evidence and a backlash from social justice advocates threaten to cancel her show. Now June must find out how far she's willing to go to keep the secret and not lose everything she rightfully deserves.

New translation.
