Description
The Teikoku Bank Massacre sets off one of Japan's biggest manhunts in history. In 1948, a mysterious incident at a downtown bank leaves twelve employees dead and four others unconscious after drinking a lethal liquid. As the investigation unfolds, dark rumours of complicity, conspiracy and cover-up begin to surface. David Peace dramatises this shocking case, exploring the tangled web of truth and deception that surrounds it. A gripping and hypnotic portrayal of life in occupied Japan, Occupied City is a marvellous tale of suspense and intrigue.
