TRUTH IS NOT AN OPTION… Beijing, sometime in the near future: a month has gone missing from official records. No one has any memory of it, and no one can care less. Except for a small circle of friends, who will stop at nothing to get to the bottom of the sinister cheerfulness and amnesia that has possessed the Chinese nation. When they kidnap a high-ranking official and force him to reveal all, what they learn – not only about their leaders, but also about their own people – stuns them to the core. It is a message that will rock the world… Terrifying methods of cunning, deception and terror are unveiled by the truth-seekers in this thriller-expose of the Communist Party's stranglehold on China today

陈冠中这部题名为《盛世：中国2013年》的小说，写世界经济于金融海啸后，全球格局进入冰河时期，中国却安然避过劫难，反而开始步入千年一遇的盛世。小 说家的意图是，中国盛世真的来临了吗？会不会所有的一切只是人为制造出来的一种迷幻效应？小说情节奇构，生鬼荒谬，有些令人惊吓有些让人哭笑不是。
