Sandalwood Death is set during the Boxer Rebellion (1898 - 1901) - an anti-imperialist struggle waged by North China's farmers and craftsmen in opposition to Western influence.
Against a broad historical canvas, the novel centers on the interplay between its female protagonist, Sun Meiniang, and the three paternal figures in her life.
One of these men is her biological father, Sun Bing, an opera virtuoso and a leader of the Boxer Rebellion.
