Ten years after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, a Japanese-American man is accused of murder and his life hangs in the balance in a courtroom on San Piedro Island, north of Puget Sound, where similar to the rest of the country, human frailty and prejudice have passed from generation to generation. The jury is instructed by the defendant’s attorney, “In order to find Kabuo Miyamoto guilty, you must be convinced of every element of the charge beyond a reasonable doubt.” Yet the prosecuting attorney has told them, “Look into his eyes, consider his face…” One of the most gripping books I’ve read in a long time!
