Set against the backdrop of a changing China, the narrative follows three Americans stranded by their employer as Communism looms. Carl Fitter, youthful and innocent, and Verne Tildon, older and more experienced, compete for the attention of Barbara Mahler, whose tough exterior may mask deeper vulnerabilities. Their contrasting approaches to love and life could ultimately alienate her, highlighting themes of desire, competition, and the complexities of human relationships in uncertain times.
