Episode Synopsis


This week on the Sinica Podcast, Kaiser and Jeremy chat with Paul French, the bestselling author of Midnight in Peking. Paul has just written an outstanding new book called City of Devils: A Shanghai Noir, in which he tells a captivating story of two foreigners rising to prominence through conducting shady business in the underworld of Shanghai in the 1930s, a chaotic yet fascinating period when the fabled Paris of the Orient was approaching its final years as the realities of the war with Japan finally closed the curtains.
