Aroview: Sino-Japanese tensions are foregrounded in this enthralling cat and mouse thriller, set in a clifftop mansion during the height of World War II.

A juicy whodunit premise crafted around double-agents planted in China's then puppet government is further elevated by a game cast and some nasty brutalities of war, vis-a-vis Japanese-occupied Nanking.
