It's election year 2000 in this graphic novel and third-generation Japanese-American senator Kenneth Yamaoka has just made the stunning announcement--only a month before the New Hampshire primary--that he will run for president of the U.S. Meanwhile, in Japan, handsome young reporter Takashi Jo loses his mother to an accidental gas leak. His mother's death also seems to end Takashi's chances of finding out more about his father, an unknown American serviceman whose identity his mother refused to divulge. Before he has time to come to grips with his grief, Takashi receives an unexpected prize assignment to cover Yamaoka's presidential campaign--at the senator's staff's request. Takashi is soon to discover the identity of his very powerful father.
