"In December 1941, patriotism and paranoia grip New York as the city mobilizes for war. Nurse Louise Hunter is outraged when the FBI arrests Masako Fumi, an avant-garde artist and newcomer to the city. Then Masako's art dealer is found dead in the gallery where he'd been closing down her show and Masako's troubles multiply. Louise hires a radical lawyer and enlists the help of her journalist roommate. Louise and homicide detective Michael McKenna must defy both racism and ham-fisted government agents to expose the real killer"--P. [4] of cover.
