Description
A gripping slice of Japanese hard-boiled noir, paying homage to the master of the genre. In "The Wrong Goodbye", homicide detective Eiji Futamura is drawn into a complex web of deceit and corruption in post-war Japan. After a frozen corpse washes up near Yokosuka U.S. Navy Base, Futamura becomes embroiled in a murder investigation that leads him to a mysterious customer from the victim's bar. A phone call from a bestselling yakuza author sets him on a collision course with a shady Chinese business empire and U.S. military intelligence. As the truth begins to unravel, Futamura finds himself entangled in a dark picture of the U.S.-Japan postwar alliance, where official lies and allegiances are revealed to be far more sinister than they initially seem.
