Pieces of the Puzzle

Om boken

Christmas Day, 1941.

As survivors of the attack on Pearl Harbor arrive by boat in San Francisco, they bring with them the devastating reality of war.

In a city gripped by fear, suspicion and a thirst for revenge, six lives become intertwined: a traumatised survivor, a grieving widow, a Japanese spy, a professor drawn into espionage, a Japanese-American family, and the general whose orders will send them – and thousands more – to internment camps.

Caught in a web of romance, blackmail, and betrayal, they are swept into an FBI investigation, an assassination plot and a desperate escape across borders.

Set against the forced removal of Japanese Americans during the Second World War, this gripping historical novel explores the human cost of war and the choices people are forced to make.
