Summary That is the angry recollection with which a former Zero fighter pilot greets two Japanese siblings who, typically, despite being educated, know next to nothing about a defining war in the Pacific that took place within living memory. The testimony rattles and confuses aspiring lawyer Kentaro and newly minted journalist Keiko since virtually the only fact they've grown up hearing about Kyuzo Miyabe is that he died a kamikaze. When the young pair digs deeper into the man's past, other surviving comrades only seem to confirm the verdict, but its very import begins to shift in surprising ways.
