White Ghost Girls by Alice Greenway

In her astonishing literary debut, Greenway tells a tale of sacrifice and solidarity between two American sisters who tumble into their teenage years in 1967 Hong Kong, against an extraordinary backdrop that is both sensuous and dangerous.
Alice Greenway lived the itinerant life of a foreign correspondent's child, growing up in Hong Kong, Thailand, Israel and the United States. As an adult, she has divided her time between the United States and Britain. Her first novel White Ghost Girls, set in Hong Kong in the 1960s, won the Los Angeles Times Art Seidenbaum Award For First Fiction and was on the Orange Prize longlist. She currently lives in Scotland.
