The Divine Wind

Like "Snow Falling on Cedars," a beautifully written and deeply moving love story set against the racial tensions of a small Australian pearl-diving town on the eve of World War II.On the eve of WWII, suspicion runs rampant in Hartley Penrose's small town. Even though they've done nothing wrong, the town is turning against its native Japanese residents - including Mitsy Sennosuke, the girl Hart loves despite himself. The result is a wrenching, unforgettable story of romance, betrayal, and the turmoils that rock both the world and the heart.
