"In Darkness, Death" by Thomas Hoobler is a gripping historical mystery set in the haunting aftermath of World War II. The story follows a young Japanese-American boy who finds himself at the center of a chilling murder investigation in a war-torn Tokyo. As he navigates the complexities of his identity and the harsh realities of a devastated city, he becomes embroiled in a web of secrets, betrayal, and danger. Tasked with uncovering the truth behind a series of murders, he must confront deep-seated prejudices and his own personal demons, all while grappling with the ever-looming shadows of war.
