I’m excited to be joined on the show today by guest author, Janie Chang. On this episode we’re going to talk about her new book, The Fourth Princess, 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. Welcome, Janie!
