I just published my fifth book with Amazon, Toward Night's End.
During WWII, on the day when more than 250 Japanese-Americans are being evacuated from Bainbridge Island, Washington, a Seattle police detective has come to the island to investigate the murder of a Caucasian man. When a 21-year old Japanese-American fisherman fails to show up on the ferry for evacuation to an internment camp, the detective believes the missing man may be connected to the murder. Then, when the fisherman's best friend, a young Caucasian is also found murdered, the fisherman becomes the prime suspect.
This suspicion follows the man's family to the Manzanar Relocation Center in Owens Valley, California where they face humiliation and cruelty from fellow evacuees. Meanwhile, the detective finds yet another body, a Japanese-American shot to death in Seattle.
Piece by piece, the detective discovers that a plot against the United States is in full swing. A plot that the missing fisherman knows all about. But where is he? And did he commit the murders? Or is he the fall guy to throw off suspicion from the real conspirators?
