Return to Hiroshima by Bob Van Laerhoven

Return to Hiroshima
Bob Van Laerohoven
TW: Rape, infant death, abortion
Genre: Noir, Crime, Historical, Thriller,
Taking place in the mid 1990s with multiple storylines, and several plot lines that eventually come together, Return to Hiroshima is a gritty, gory, violent story showing a Japan with economic depression and a legacy of an aftermath of nuclear holocaust. This is a page turning story that while confusing at times with the rotations between characters at every chapter and multiple plots and subplots, the story still keeps the reader drawn in although there is a laundry list of triggers in this book that I have listed. This is a translation from the original text but unlike some other books I have read it isn’t blatantly obvious or obtrusive to the story. This was an engrossing (and gross, in a good way) book and I recommend it for fans of the genre.
I give this 4 of 5 stars and thank Blackthorn Book Tours and Bob Van Laerhoven for the review copy of this book.
