It's August 1946--one year after the Japanese surrender--and women
are turning up dead all over Tokyo. Detective Minami of the Tokyo
Metropolitan Police--irreverent, angry, despairing--goes on the
hunt for a killer known as the Japanese Bluebeard--a decorated
former Imperial soldier who raped and murdered at least ten women
amidst the turmoil of post-war Tokyo. As he undertakes the case,
Minami is haunted by his own memories of atrocities that he can no
longer explain or forgive. Unblinking in its vision of a nation in
a chaotic, hellish period in its history, "Tokyo Year Zero" is a
darkly lyrical and stunningly original crime novel.
