{"product_id":"book-acjc","title":"December 6","description":"From Martin Cruz Smith, author of \u003ci\u003eGorky Park\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eHavana Bay\u003c\/i\u003e, comes another audacious novel of exotic locales, intimate intrigues and the mysteries of the human heart: \u003ci\u003eDecember 6\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Set in the crazed, nationalistic Tokyo of late 1941, \u003ci\u003eDecember 6\u003c\/i\u003e explores the coming world war through the other end of history's prism -- a prism held here by an unforgettable rogue and lover, Harry Niles. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In many ways, Niles is as American as apple pie: raised by ultra-protective missionary parents, taught to honor and respect his elders and be an upright Christian citizen. But Niles is also Japanese: reared in the aesthetics of Shinto and educated in the dance halls and back room poker gatherings of Tokyo's shady underworld. As a gaijin, a foreigner -- especially one with a gift for the artful scam -- he draws suspicion and disfavor from Japanese police. This potent mixture of stiff tradition and intrigue -- not to mention his brazen love affair with a Japanese mistress who would rather kill Harry than lose him -- fills Harry's final days in Tokyo with suspense and fear. Who is he really working for? Is he a spy? For America? For the Emperor? \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Now, on the eve of Pearl Harbor, Harry himself must decide where his true allegiances lie. Suspenseful, exciting, and replete with the detailed research Martin Cruz Smith brings to all his novels, \u003ci\u003eDecember 6\u003c\/i\u003e is a triumph of imagination, history, and storytelling melded into a magnificent whole.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster Audio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49348327407920,"sku":"BDacjc","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD [40]","offer_id":49348327440688,"sku":"40acjc","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/187402-acjc-Square.jpg?v=1734220970","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-acjc","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
