Tsingtao's Last Stand

By: Bohnke, Fc

A siege. A secret. Four men on opposite sides of history.

Tsingtao's Last Stand plunges readers into the dramatic 1914 siege of the German port of Qingdao (Tsingtao) on China's Shandong Peninsula-an overlooked but pivotal moment in World War I. As Japan and Britain lay siege to Germany's "Gibraltar of the East," tensions rise not only between empires, but among the individuals tasked with defending or destroying them.

Through four interwoven perspectives-a steadfast German officer, a calculating Japanese strategist, a Chinese laborer caught in the crossfire, and a British naval observer questioning his nation's aims-this novel reveals a world on the brink of transformation.

Inspired by true events, this is historical fiction at its most global, atmospheric, and haunting-perfect for fans of Master and Commander, All the Light We Cannot See, and The Narrow Road to the Deep North.
