Mystery
December, 1941: With New Yorkers painfully aware of their
vulnerability after the Pearl Harbor attack, the FBI prowls
the city snatching up Japanese residents. Tension increases
for a sensitive Japanese artist when she’s accused of murder
as well as espionage. Is Masako Fumi guilty? Or a victim of
racial paranoia? Nurse Louise Hunter is outraged and vows to
help her friend. When the murdered body of Masako’s art dealer is discovered
in the gallery where he’d been closing down her
controversial show, Masako’s troubles multiply. Homicide
detective Michael McKenna doubts her guilt, but an ambitious
G-man schemes to lever the homicide and ensuing espionage
accusations into a political cause célèbre. Struggling to focus on one man’s murder while America
plunges into a worldwide war, Louise and McKenna defy both
racism and ham-fisted government agents in order to expose
the real killer.
