 A Nazi war criminal is in Tokyo to cash his war loot: $1 million in platinum. When he s murdered, a visiting American is framed and must elude police as well as a gang that thinks he has the precious metal. He s Matt Carver and he has his own history: raised in Japan, fluent in Japanese and karate, but an American soldier in the Pacific in World War II. He s bitter, and he s in Tokyo to put ghosts to rest. While in hiding, he turns to the Harakawa family, including Akira, his boyhood friend. Carver s history with the Harakawa family holds the key to the mystery of the dead Nazi, but how do these separate stories connect, and can Carver sort it out before it s too late?
