Fifty three years after the end of World War II, Yasuo Saito lives
in quiet retirement concealing his shameful past as a Japanese navy
pilot. Margaret Roberts, a senior U.S. government official at the
end of her pioneering career, confronts her mother's failing health
while she juggles nagging ambition and her quest for happiness.
Saito and Roberts each take refuge in Hawaii, where they help the
FBI solve a mysterious shooting in Pearl Harbor. As that murder
investigation unfolds, hidden stories are revealed that link Saito
and Roberts to December 7, 1941, a day of infamy that pushed the
world into war and would prove pivotal to both of them. Against the
backdrop of a shocking crime in late 1998, "Clouds Over Mountains"
moves between modern-day Hawaii, Japan, and Washington, D.C.,
weaving recollections of pre-war Japan with contemporary political
intrigue. The novel examines themes of love and family, shame and
redemption, truth and hope, and how historical events continue to
shape people's lives six decades later.
