"House of Daughters" is set in Hong Kong of the 1920s and 30s. Pearl, an elderly and wealthy Jewish-Chinese matriarch is convinced that a series of unfortunate events are signs of a curse conjured by Chinese women whose men folk perished when they fell victim to opium addiction. The curse, she believes, will bring misery to all those who profited from the opium trade and will last three generations. Pearl’s wealth came from her late husband Emanuel Belilios, a Jewish opium oligarch from Calcutta. Pearl must find a way to assuage the curse before it infects her daughter and granddaughter. But she’s running out of time.
"House of Daughters" is a stand-alone sequel to Globe and Mail bestseller, "The House of Wives."
