The Bitter Tea of General Yen
Megan Davis is a head strong and independent young woman who has traveled to China to marry her fiancé, missionary Robert Strike. Before they can be married, they set off to rescue a group of orphans only to be separated in the war torn countryside. Megan is rescued by a Chinese warlord General Yen and taken to safety at his palace. Over the course of the next week - she can't leave because of the ongoing turmoil - General Yen tries to charm her and achieves some success. After he orders the death of one of his concubines, Mah-Li, Megan jumps to her defense only to have her betray them. Defeated and with his army deserting him, Lee proceeds to his honorable end.
