San Francisco-- April 18, 1906
Brendan O'Connor is delivering pastries to the bustling businesses and
elegant hotels of San Francisco, dreaming that someday he will be a part
of that life. Li Dai Yue is running from the isolated seciruty of
Chinatown, distraught over the marriage her uncle has arranged for her.
Chance throws them together on the day of the San Francisco earthquake.
Can two strangers from such different worlds work together to survive
the terror of crumbling buildings, fire, looting, and chaos?
