Snow Falling on Cedars is a courtroom drama, a war novel, a love story, and a novel of place all rolled into one. Legitimate provender for the television show Jeopardy !, it also, on occasion, fills out a crossword puzzle, or lends itself to public wordplay.
But in 1954 a local fisherman is found suspiciously drowned, and a Japanese American named Kabuo Miyamoto is charged with his murder. In the course of the ensuing trial, it becomes clear that what is at stake is more than a man's guilt.
