Based on a true account, this World War II book by Scott O'Dell Award champion Graham Salisbury explains to how Zenji, 17, is delivered from Hawaii to the Philippines to spy on japan. Zenji Watanabe graduates from senior high school in Hawaii and is recruited in to the military as a translator because he talks perfect Japanese. He's delivered to Manila undercover as a civilian to assemble information on japan in the Philippines. If they discover his personality, he'll be executed as a traitor. When captured, he sustains that he's an American civilian despite unthinkable torture. He also survives being lost in the jungle for calendar months. Zenji's time behind enemy lines is grueling, and his success is a testament to the strength of the human heart. This is actually the fourth booklet in Graham Salisbury's highly acclaimed Prisoners of the Empire series, which started with the award-winning Under the Blood-Red Sun.
