The Curse of Wu あらすじ・解説

Wu Chen immigrated to California from China as the secretary for Kong Mac's tong in the 1850s.

A tong was an embassy in a strange land, a kind of fraternal society for Chinese who arrived in San Francisco. It was from this tong that a lone Chinese male gained access to work, food, shelter, and entertainment. The tong members mined gold, silver, and built the railroad up and over the Sierras.

Throughout his 34 years of working for Kong Mac, Wu had accumulated 800 pounds of gold, and had hidden it all throughout the Sierras. On the day the novel begins, May 5th, 1885, Wu has finally moved all of his gold stash to his hiding place in Castle Rock on Mount Diablo in northern California. That same day, Wu's only son, Jimmy, decides to betray him for his gold. Instead of tremendous wealth, Jimmy receives a tremendous curse from his father. A curse that lasts for generations to come.

One hundred years later, Wu's body, a pistol, 10 pounds of gold, and a journal are found in his hidden cave by a young man named Ken. It sets him and his detective friend, Gene, on a journey to Moloka'i, Hawaii, to unravel the rest of the story. Ken and Gene locate the living Chen relatives and learn the deeper meanings of love and lost love.

Castle Rock is a historical fiction trilogy that will help you rediscover the beauty and sadness that exist in every generation, the strength of the spiritual practices that Hawaiians have long believed in, and the power of family and forgiveness.

The Curse of Wu is the first audiobook in this trilogy.
