    From the internationally bestselling author of The Porcelain Moon comes a haunting Gothic novel set in 1911 China. Two young women living in a crumbling, once-grand Shanghai mansion face danger as secrets of their pasts come to light, even as the mansion’s own secret threatens the present.Shanghai, 1911. Lisan Liu is elated when she is hired as secretary to wealthy American Caroline Stanton, the new mistress of Lennox Manor on the outskirts of Shanghai’s International Settlement. However, the Manor has a dark past due to a previous owner’s suicide, and soon Lisan’s childhood nightmares resurface with more intensity and meld with haunted visions of a woman in red. Adding to her unease is the young gardener, Yao, who both entices and disturbs her.Newly married Caroline looks forward to life in China with her husband, Thomas, away from the shadows of another earlier tragedy. But an unwelcome guest, Andrew Grey, attends her party and claims to know secrets she can’t afford to have exposed. At the same party, the notorious princess Masako Kyo approaches Lisan with questions about the young woman’s family that the orphaned Lisan can’t answer.As Caroline struggles with Grey’s extortion and Thomas’s mysterious illness, Lisan’s future is upended when she learns the truth about her past, and why her identity has been hidden all these years.

Recommend to readers who like their historical fiction dark and suspenseful." — Booklist“Masterful plotting and mesmerizing characters will draw readers into this deliciously atmospheric tale set in 1911 Shanghai. Elegant prose and polite restraint are perfectly juxtaposed with secrets and intrigue, with an ending so unexpected it took my breath away.” — Donna Jones Alward, author of When the World Fell Silent“Rich in historical detail and a palpable sense of unease that will deliver all the shivers, this luminous Gothic tale will haunt readers long after they turn the last page.” — Kimberly Brock, award-winning author of The Fabled Earth“Janie Chang brings early-twentieth-century Shanghai to life in this beautifully layered tale of secrets, superstition, and resilience.

With well-drawn characters I couldn’t help but root for and twists you don’t see coming, I could hardly put it down. Chang never disappoints!” — Heather Webb, USA Today bestselling author of The Hope Keeper“In The Fourth Princess, Chang spins a Gothic tale with all the intricacies, elegance, and allure of a fine silk web. Amid a Shanghai mansion, on the cusp of the Great War, the entangled lives of two women lure the reader down a path of tragedy and deception, culminating in an ending with unforgettable twists. A story of intrigue not to be missed.” — Kristina McMorris, New York Times bestselling author of Sold on a Monday and The Girls of Good Fortune"I love a good story that mixes two women who are orphans, a mysterious guardian, a dilapidated gothic mansion with secrets of its own—that throws in a dash of Chinese superstition, romance and, of course, murder. . . .A tale ensues full of lies, secrets and daring escapes." — Jeanine Herbst, NPR news anchor"This is a well-written gothic novel that includes a good look at the events and culture of Shanghai at the time.
