Now the Itos have finally been allowed to return home to California--but nothing is as they left it. The entire Japanese American community is starting from scratch, with thousands of people living in dismal refugee camps while they struggle to find new houses and jobs in over-crowded Los Angeles. Aki is working as a nurse's aide at the Japanese Hospital in Boyle Heights when an elderly Issei man is admitted with suspicious injuries. When she seeks out his son, she is shocked to recognize her husband's best friend, Babe Watanabe. Could Babe be guilty of elder abuse? Only a few days later, Little Tokyo is rocked by a murder at the low-income hotel where the Watanabes have been staying. When the cops start sniffing around Aki's home, she begins to worry that the violence tearing through her community might threaten her family. What secrets have the Watanabes been hiding, and can Aki protect her husband from getting tangled up in their mess?"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Japanese Americans $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Little Tokyo (Los Angeles, Calif.) $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Los Angeles (Calif.) $x History $y 20th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Mystery fiction. $2 gsafd 830 0 $a Japantown mysteries ; $v 2. 941 $a 20 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509012535.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409044752.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025710.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305022518.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20240127013533.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207020546.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20231202012134.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20231114010113.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20231109010612.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025015115.0 952 $l VFPB334 $d 20231005013234.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20231005012158.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231004010359.0 952 $l DYPD423 $d 20230927010120.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230913010334.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902014555.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230902011202.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230902010506.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20230902010055.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20230816010118.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EFB928B235B011EEA7DDB3DB4DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
