"Why didn't she think of this city as Home? Catherine Ling wondered as she looked down through the clouds from the window of the jet approaching Hong Kong. Other people would have found it strange that she had never regarded this exotic, wonderful, terrible city as her home place. She had spent her childhood here on the streets struggling, sometimes starving, always having to use her mind and wits just to stay alive." -Live to See Tomorrow by Iris Johansen
Yeah, I can see why she wouldn't call Hong Kong home, what with her history with it! What about you guys? Happy reading!
