Chicago China Blue

Michael Collins

4/5 ( ratings)

Discovered to have a photographic memory, seaman Francis Marian assumes command of a U.S. Navy intelligence unit in the Philippines. He meets Shinako, a beautiful young Japanese woman whose innocence has been destroyed by the ambitious Japanese naval officer Seiroku Takamatsu. German spy Werner Breidstein arrives in Manila and soon becomes the nemesis of Francis, as Japan and the United States vie for political mastery of China and the Western Pacific in the years before Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor. In the final hours before the attack, Takamatsu is lured by Shinako to Breidstein's seaside villa. Francis follows Takamatsu and, learning of the coming attack, attempts to warn General MacArthur. Breidstein, with the aid of a priest, goes into hiding. But when Francis finds Breidstein as Japanese forces land on the shores of the Philippines, Breidstein shoots the priest. In his dying moments, the priest reveals the shocking truth about who Breidstein really is.
