Book excerpt: Japan has just attacked Pearl Harbor. Simultaneously, Japan's Minister of War, Tojo Hideki has a secret project developing on the small Mariana Island of Saipan, that when completed, is guaranteed to annihilate America. Unable to trust his advisors, he sends a civilian attorney, Monoru Sakamoto to Saipan to be his watchdog. Before the project is completed, America occupies Saipan and Sakamoto and Tojo's project disappear without a trace. Fifty years later, Sakamoto's granddaughter, Akiko, goes to Saipan in an attempt to learn the fate of her grandfather. With the help of a handsome young Attorney General, Justin Moore, the son of one of the fighting men that helped liberate the island, she explores the island and uncovers the amazing fate of her grandfather. Their explorations continue until they uncover the still-existent secret project, intact. Then she learns of the embarrassment that Japan wanted to not only keep from the world, but from its own people as well-Suicide Cliff.
