Set on an island in the straits north of Puget Sound, in Washington, where everyone is either a fisherman or a berry farmer, the story is nominally about a murder trial. But since it's set in the 1950s, lingering memories of World War II, internment camps & racism helps fuel suspicion of a Japanese-American fisherman, a lifelong resident of the islands.

Didn't read this book but did see the movie (which was very good) :)
