The Tarnished Rose


Book Description

This is the story of a young Japanese-American, Iva Toguri, who found herself stranded in Japan following the attack on Pearl Harbor. Seeking employment in a belligerent country, she worked for Radio Tokyo. There she joined a conspiracy led by an Australian to obstruct and reduce the effectiveness of Japanese propaganda aimed at Allied soldiers in the Pacific. Following the war and against a backdrop of national revenge, she was convicted of treason and sent to prison for her role as the infamous Tokyo Rose, a person who never really existed. Many years later new information led to a presidential pardon for a miscarriage of justice brought about by wartime hysteria and racial animosity. Replete with lessons, it is a story worth knowing in our own age beset by America’s “war on terrorism.”

Becky Barnes has just endured a long and arduous journey from Nashville to her tiny North Carolina hometown. When she arrives at her sister’s doorstep and receives a lukewarm welcome, no one has any idea that Becky is in a desperate situation. Years earlier, Becky grabbed her chance to take her incredible voice and intense ambition to Nashville, deserting her new husband and infant son in the process.

Now as Becky attempts to rebuild her life, bank account, and reputation in a place where she has obviously burned too many bridges, she must overcome judgments, perceptions, and her own insecurities while facing challenges and new possibilities along with a compelling need to connect to the child she abandoned. As she courageously sets down a rocky path toward an uncertain future, only time will tell if it leads her to happiness or more disappointment. Glitter is a tale of perseverance, forgiveness, and love as a discouraged country singer returns home to rural North Carolina to begin a new chapter.
