With intrigue, romance and suspense to rival Gone With the Wind, Amber Road tells an epic story of one woman’s indomitable spirit against the backdrop of World War II. As an empire is swept away, a young woman's world is ripped apart... It’s 1941 and seventeen-year-old Victoria Khoo lives in luxury in colonial Singapore.

Later, British and Spanish authorities tried to d...
