Description

Using the redolent environment of Ian Rankin and the spine-chilling figures of Thomas Harris, Mo Hayder's The Devil of Nanking, takes the audience on an impressive fictional trip in the palatial flats of yakuza kingpins to deep within the secret record of 1 of the twentieth-century's most challenging occasions: the Nanking Massacre. A Englishwoman enthusiastic about an indecipherable past, Gray involves Tokyo seeking a piece of movie footage of the infamous 1937 Nanking Massacre, footage some state never endured. Just one person might help Gray. A survivor of the massacre, he's currently a visiting lecturer in a college in Tokyo.
