The Ciphermaster

1927. CHINA IS IN TURMOIL.

The Communist Party and the Kuomintang government, long at each others throats, are now locked into a conflict set to claim the lives of millions. History remembers the bodies and battlefields, but for some, fate was decided between the ciphers.

Ji Zhenrens mind is the Red Armys prize asset. His task: to break the enemys near-impenetrable codes. With Jis genius at the helm the retreating Red Army might just be able to turn the tables, but only if forbidden romance and political controversy dont bring him crashing down first.

From the dark alleys of Shanghai to hidden paths carved through snowclad mountains, an invisible war rages. In the silent world of the codebreaker, cracking the cipher means breaking the enemy. Anything less spells certain death.
