About This Book

A novel about spies set in Japan during the closing months of World War II. Early in 1945, Navy lieutenant Kenji Minato, interned as a Japanese spy, offers to spy for US Intelligence. In Tokyo his mission is to identify members of a Peace Faction. Amidst the terrors of the bombing of Tokyo, Minato and Okada, his control, find out more about themselves than they do about the Peace Faction, and each struggles to come to terms with the Japanese dogma that links death for Emperor with honour, surrender with dishonour.
