A schoolmarm, a sugar baron, and a soldier... It is 1902 and Georgina Potter has followed her fianc? to the Philippines, the most remote outpost of America's fledgling empire. But Georgina has a purpose in mind beyond marriage: her real mission is to find her brother Ben, who has disappeared into the abyss of the Philippine-American War. To navigate the Islands' troubled waters, Georgina enlists the aid of local sugar baron Javier Altarejos. But nothing is as it seems, and the price of Javier's help may be more than Georgina can bear.
