Summary
“And if you can’t see anything beautiful about yourself, get a better mirror, look a little closer, stare a little longer, because there’s something inside you that made you keep trying despite everyone who told you to quit.” –Shane Koyczan, “To This Day”
If someone told Percival Graves he’d spend his fortieth year as a fugitive on the run from MACUSA, in the company of an Obscurial, a smuggler, a Legilimens, and a No-Maj, he would’ve put them in an institution. But now, after a near-miraculous survival of captivity at Grindelwald's hands, he's become a wanted man because he can no longer in good conscience uphold the laws he'd once vowed to protect.
This is the story of a man on the run, haunted by more ghosts than he cares to count, on a journey that will span an entire continent. This is the story of how Percival Graves saved Credence Barebone from execution; how he fled New York in Newt Scamander’s suitcase; how he got something he never thought he needed: a family.
Complete.

Summary
The Suitcase Family has made it out of America and arrived safely in China. Unfortunately, "safe" is a highly subjective word: six foreigners, all wanted for crimes in America, aren't safe by any real definition of the word. Lucky for them, Madame Ya Zhou, leader of the Chinese magical government, agrees to hear their case for asylum. Jacob isn't exactly sure how he ended up in these hallowed halls, fighting for the lives of his friends in a political quagmire, but hell if he's not going to do his best to keep them all safe.
