Com a morte de Donovan, Kiele deixe de se sentir parte de Londres e de Adolf, aquele homem que tanto…
ama, pois seu sangue inglês foi à maldição de seu povo. Trabalha em diferentes ofícios, até que chega a uma família londrina estabelecida na China e se transforma na instrutora da filha de um poderoso empresário. Rubén Mosses é um homem de poder, que procura a forma de fazê-la sua amante, mas quando Kiele está disposta da lhe dar uma relação extra-matrimonial, estoura a Segunda Guerra do Ópio, que a obriga se separar daquela família que a acolheu por seis anos e, sobretudo, da menina Catarina que nessa época já era uma jovem de quinze anos. Diante da noticia de que a China se encontra em Guerra de novo, Adolf McColl realiza a viajem para China que estava adiando, agora não em busca de tecidos para seu império, mas sim para proteger a única mulher que amou e segue amando. Mas, as visões da morte não o deixam em paz, e a dúvida de não saber se Kiele está viva ou morta, lhe torturam até o cansaço.By Mariela Saravia, Ana Paula Ruth Lima. 2017
