“Reviewed By Jack Magnus for Readers’ Favorite
Richter’s War: Case of the Japanese Alien is a short, hard-boiled mystery story written by Daniel P. Douglas. Karol Eugen Richter, aka Geno Richter, was medically exempted from military service, but he’s still actively working for the government in their efforts against the Nazis who’ve infiltrated Los Angeles. On the night Geno encountered the Japanese alien, as reported several day later in the Los Angeles Times, there was a Japanese attack upon the mainland. Geno woke in the dead of night to the flashing of searchlights and wailing of air raid sirens, and then he received a telephone call from one of his contacts, the not-terribly-reliable Hans Bremmer, a fisherman. Bremmer claimed he had one of the alien invaders in his custody, a Jap pilot, and he figured Geno and his government contacts might be interested. When Geno got to the apartment Bremmer specified, the alien in question was definitely not Japanese, as far as Geno was concerned, though Bremmer and Geno’s government contacts were sure that they had captured the enemy.
Daniel P. Douglas’s short, hard-boiled mystery story, Richter’s War: Case of the Japanese Alien, immerses the reader in the thick of hostilities arising out of World War II. Geno Richter is a marvelous noir hero, whose tough exterior and wisecracking demeanor mask a sensitive man who can’t quite wrap his mind around the fact that Kenji Nakamoto, proprietor of Kenji’s, which boasted the best pork and noodles in LA, and his entire family had been detained and sent to a relocation camp. Douglas’ plot is action-packed and suspenseful, and his historical setting works very well indeed. Sadly, the message implicit in Richter’s War: Case of the Japanese Alien is a timely one, considering today’s political climate. In his foreword, the author indicates that there are further adventures of Geno Richter waiting to be penned. I’m definitely looking forward to them. Richter’s War: Case of the Japanese Alien is most highly recommended.”
