Satomi Baker is used to being different. It is 1939, and in rural California being half-white and half-Japanese gets you noticed. When war is declared, Satomi's father Aaron is one of the first to sign up, and he is sent to the base at Pearl Harbor. He never returns. The community that has tolerated its foreign residents for decades suddenly turns on them, and they are sent to a brutal labour camp in the wilderness. Satomi learns what it takes to survive, who she can trust, and what it means to be American.
