Hideo Ashida is a crime-lab whiz, caught up in the maelstrom of the Japanese internment. Dudley Smith is an LAPD hardnose working Army Intelligence. He's gone rogue and gone all-the-way Fascist. Joan Conville was born rogue. She's a defrocked Navy lieutenant and a war profiteer to her core.\n\nThey've signed on for the dead-man job. They've got a hot date with History. They will fight their inner wars within The War with unstoppable fury.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0307957004\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0307957004.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Ellroy, James\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
