One book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat was the plan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eApril 2013. Photo-journalist Iwakura and his reporter friend Eri, as she was known to the whole of Japan, would be working together again. Since their collaboration in 2011 had exposed more about the truth surrounding the hijacking of a shinkansen ('bullet train'), they had worked on many articles together, but this would be their first book. The book would be covering some important current social issues such as depopulation, city regeneration, tourism, and work-related suicides.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut fate had another path for them. One where death always seemed to be close at hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFOUR is the first book (but second that was published) in the 'Iwakura Series' and it continues the adventures of photojournalist 'Rock' Iwakura and journalist Eri Amadera. The book starts in 2013, less than two years after Hijacking Japan was set. Although it contains some spoilers related to that book, it can be read without overly ruining the story and tension if you want to read that one later. Although FOUR is the second in the Iwakura series, it is set before Tokyo 20\/20 Vision and helps to explain some of the history and character development that you will have come across if you read that one first.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher P.
