His older brother is missing in Vietnam, his grandfather is losing it to dementia, and he just learned that his mother was raped by a Japanese soldier during World War II. It all comes together when he discovers an old man, a Japanese soldier, hiding in the jungle behind his house. It's not the same man who raped his mother, but, in his rage, Kiko cares only about protecting his family and avenging his mom--no matter what it takes. And so, a shy, peaceable boy begins to plan a murder. But how far will Kiko go to prove to himself that he's a man? Based on a true incident in history, No Surrender Soldier is the story of a boy grappling with ancient questions of courage and manhood before he can move on. 650 0 Soldiers|zJapan|vJuvenile fiction. 650 0 Criminal intent|vJuvenile fiction. 650 1 Soldiers|zJapan|vFiction. 650 1 Criminal intent|vFiction. 651 0 Guam|xHistory|vJuvenile fiction. 651 1 Guam|xHistory|vFiction. 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n10732082 938 Baker and Taylor|bBTCP|nBK0013348714 938 Brodart|bBROD|n108156818 994 92|bCKE
