In the wake of the inferno unleashed over Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, two stories unfold: that of Jim, an American soldier when the bomb dropped, and H, a mere schoolgirl at the time. Both victims of the bomb, the two cross paths by chance years later and fall in love. Together they continue Jim's ongoing search for Yoro, the little girl who disappeared while under Jim's care those many years ago. |
