The Killer They Called A God
   

This is the true story of the most bizarre and brutal Japanese war criminal of all. He orders the massacre of thousands of Chinese civilians in Singapore and Malaya. He is responsible for the slaughter of thousands more US and Filipino servicemen in the Philippines. But, disguised as a monk, he makes his getaway in the chaotic days following Japan's unconditional surrender from the Japanese military headquarters in Bangkok, Thailand. He is chased by the British but is, incredibly, protected by the Americans and re-surfaces to become one of his country's most prominent post-war citizens. He becomes Japan's most popularly elected parliamentarian! The author traces the amazing story from the bloodied beaches of Singapore to its baffling cloak-and-dagger conclusion.

Eight months on Southeast Asian best seller lists. Available in Singapore and Malaysia, the Philippines, Australia and the UK.

Snaring The Other Tiger
   

By Ian Ward
ISBN 981-00-8125-1
348 pp; paperback

A well-researched, fully documented account of Australia's judicial lynching of her most prized Japanese war crimes suspect. Aided and abetted by the nation's leading politicians, a clique of top military men concocted evidence, installed their own kangaroo court and endeavoured to salve a country's war wounds with a formally sanctioned murder. Two appendices of telling official documents the military of the day withheld from public release accompany this racy and gripping chronicle of appalling vindictiveness that casts a cloud over the much-vaunted Australian concept of 'fair dinkum'.

Available in Singapore and Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
