Two young stuntmen confront shocking truths and unlock long-held family secrets during the US internment of Japanese citizens in World War II. Louis Thorn and Haruto âÇÿHarryâÇÖ Yamada are the star attractions of a daredevil aerial stunt team that traverses Depression-era California: Eagle & Crane. The young men have a complicated relationship, due to the Thorn familyâÇÖs belief that the Yamadas âÇ" Japanese immigrants âÇ" stole land belonging to them. This tension is inflamed when Louis and Harry are both drawn to the same woman, Ava Brooks. After the bombing of Pearl Harbor there are changes and harsh realities to face. When one of the stunt planes crashes with two charred bodies inside, the authorities conclude that the victims are Harry and his father, escaped from a Japanese internment camp. However, as Agent Bonner is sent to confirm the facts, his ensuing investigation struggles when thedetails donâÇÖt add up and no one seems willing to tell the truth. âÇÿAn epic love story set against a time of upheaval, suspicion and change. A magnificent novel from a great writerâÇÖ Adriana Trigiani
