Places like this have a history. Desires. And this one is famished. Megan and her mom are on the run after narrowly escaping the clutches of an abusive man who dragged them from Portland to Beijing. With few options Megan?s mom turns to an old friend who offers them room and board in Huihuang Opera Theater in exchange for cleaning the ancient building. Between her rusty Mandarin and constant reminders that she?s an outsider Megan struggles with loneliness?until she meets Kristy the glamorous young lead in the operatic adaptation of ?The Monkey King and the White Bone Demon?. Soon Megan?s free time is split between reading a battered copy of the Chinese classic that inspired the opera and her budding new friendship Kristy?s love of singing brings out Megan?s long-buried ambitions. But the opera house has its secrets. There are passages within the walls that shouldn?t be there and the more Megan delves into that old book the more the myths begin to bleed into real life. As Megan finds it increasingly difficult to separate reality from folklore she must uncover a decades-old mystery to discover the true horrifying secret of the opera house before it throws its hungry eyes to her.
