Ji is a young woman caught in the subterranean society of the Hermit Kingdom. When all out war erupts between the US and her homeland, she is determined not to be the victim her grandparents were so long ago. Fleeing from exploitation, forced labor and worse, she begins an odyssey which takes her over foreign landscapes and into dangerous seas. Ji braves imprisonment, marriage, capture, and more while seeking to elude this spilled Panndora's box of horrors. An American fiction writer, Ken Mock, is the victim of a soft kidnapping. He is tricked into serving in a small think tank about the war where his ideas are used by the other side. Once freed, his guilt drives him to redeem the terrible ideas he has 'fathered.' He finds a way to the front lines of the forbidden War. Their lives, and those of others, become inexplicably intertwined in the twisted fate of a war never meant to be won, only to be endured.
