Trầm Hương

A hard up historian lives happily with his newly-wed wife and her child from her previous husband. But as he becomes more successful and financially stable, the family relationships begin to fracture.

Acclaimed for her outstanding beauty and intellect, Bạch Cúc is thought to have a lavish and glamourous life awaiting her in the future, but instead gets married off to the hedonistic, good-for-nothing heir of a wealthy landlord family. Refusing to tolerate the constant abuse wreak upon herself and other servants in estate, Bạch Cúc joins the Vietminh, and begins her double life operating an intricate intelligence network.
