She gathers a group of like-minded women, and together they form the China Hunters Club.The novel follows the club's adventures as they travel to China to acquire rare and beautiful pieces of porcelain. Along the way, they encounter many challenges and obstacles, including language barriers, cultural differences, and the danger of traveling in an unfamiliar country.
