Šīs vardarbīgās baudas

the White Flowers, who have fought the Scarlets for generations. And behind every move is their heir, Roma Montagov, Juliette’s first love…and first betrayal.

But when gangsters on both sides show signs of instability culminating in clawing their own throats out, the people start to whisper. Of a contagion, a madness. Of a monster in the shadows. As the deaths stack up, Juliette and Roma must set their guns—and grudges—aside and work together, for if they can’t stop this mayhem, then there will be no city left for either to rule.

Ir 1926. gads, un Šanhaja dungo izvirtības melodijā. Asins naids starp divām bandām iet pa ielas sarkanā krāsā, atstājot pilsētu bezpalīdzīgu haosa varā. Visa pamatā ir astoņpadsmit gadus vecā Džuljeta Kaija, bijusī flapper, kura ir atgriezusies, lai uzņemtos lepnās Scarlet Gang mantinieces lomu — noziedznieku tīkls, kas daudz pārsniedz likumu. Viņu vienīgie konkurenti pie varas ir Baltās puķes, kas cīnījās ar Scarlets paaudzēm. Un aiz katras kustības ir viņu mantinieks Roma Montagovs, Džuljetas pirmā mīlestība… un pirmā nodevība. Bet, kad gangsteriem abās pusēs parādās nestabilitātes pazīmes, kas vainagojas ar rīkles raušanu ārā, cilvēki sāk čukstēt. Par infekciju, neprātu. Par briesmoni ēnā. Nāves gadījumu skaitam pieaugot, Džuljetai un Romai jānoliek ieroči un aizvainojumi un jāstrādā kopā, jo, ja viņi nespēs apturēt šo haosu, tad nevienam citam vairs nebūs pilsētas.

Description:
The year is 1926, and Shanghai hums to the tune of debauchery.

A blood feud between two gangs runs the streets red, leaving the city helpless in the grip of chaos. At the heart of it all is eighteen-year-old Juliette Cai, a former flapper who has returned to assume her role as the proud heir of the Scarlet Gang—a network of criminals far above the law. Their only rivals in power are the White Flowers, who have fought the Scarlets for generations. And behind every move is their heir, Roma Montagov, Juliette’s first love…and first betrayal.

But when gangsters on both sides show signs of instability culminating in clawing their own throats out, the people start to whisper. Of a contagion, a madness. Of a monster in the shadows. As the deaths stack up, Juliette and Roma must set their guns—and grudges—aside and work together, for if they can’t stop this mayhem, then there will be no city left for either to rule.
