In 1935, a Chinese woman by the name of Shi Jianqiao murdered the notorious warlord Sun Chuanfang as he prayed in a Buddhist temple. This work of history examines this well-publicized crime and the highly sensationalized trial of the killer. It traces the rise of a sentiment - "public sympathy" - in early twentieth-century China.
