One Summer in Tokyo

By William J. Shannon

It is the early 1990's, and the Japanese "Bubble Economy" that had made Japan one of the richest countries in the world has collapsed. A cabal of yakusa, right wing politicians and desperate businessmen are determined to establish a government headed by a stridently anti-American politician who will protect their interests, but who will also greatly weaken the relationship between the U.S. and Japan. It soon appears that the alliance through a combination of murder, bribery and blackmail will achieve its goal. Claire Whitlock, the CIA station chief, and the U.S. embassy legal attache work together to devise and implement a daring and unauthorized plan that will protect their country's interests and maintain the current weak but pro-American government.
