Clint Eastwood's completion of the Iwo Jima saga. Here the action
is seen from the Japanese point of view and the film is based on
the book 'Picture Letters from Commander in Chief' by Tadamichi
Kuribayashi. The island of Iwo Jima stands between the American
military force and the home islands of Japan. Therefore the
Imperial Japanese Army is desperate to prevent it from falling into
American hands and providing a launching point for an invasion of
Japan. General Tadamichi Kuribayashi (Ken Watanabe) is given
command of the forces on the island and sets out to prepare for the
imminent attack. General Kuribayashi, however, does not favour the
rigid traditional approach recommended by his subordinates, and
resentment and resistance fester among his staff.
Detective Cara Kennedy thought she'd lost her husband and son in an
accident, but harrowing evidence has emerged that points to murder--and
she will stop at nothing to find the truth in this riveting mystery
from the author of City Under One Roof.
On a frigid February day, Anchorage Detective Cara Kennedy stands by
the graves of her husband and son, watching as their caskets are raised
from the earth. It feels sacrilegious, but she has no choice. Aaron and
Dylan disappeared on a hike a year ago, their bones eventually found
and buried. But shocking clues have emerged that foul play was
involved, potentially connecting them to a string of other deaths and
disappearances.
Somehow tied to the mystery is Mia Upash, who grew up in an isolated
village called Unity, a community of women and children in hiding from
abusive men. Mia never imagined the trouble she would find herself in
when she left home to live in Man's World. Although she remains haunted
by the tragedy of what happened to the man and the boy in the woods,
she has her own reasons for keeping quiet.
Aided by police officer Joe Barkowski and other residents of Point
Mettier, Cara's investigation will lead them on a dangerous path that
puts their lives and the lives of everyone around them in mortal
jeopardy.
