Shigeru Kitamura, CEO of Kitamura Economic Security LLC, has published a new book from Bungeishunju titled Secret Records of the Foreign Affairs Police.

For the first time, Japan’s intelligence master reveals the frontlines of the spy wars—China, Russia, North Korea. How has Japan’s Foreign Affairs Police confronted threats from abroad? From the abductions of Japanese citizens by North Korea, to tracking members of the Japanese Red Army, exposing Aum Shinrikyo’s “Russian connection,” countering Putin’s spies, thwarting a Yamaguchi-gumi mafia summit, and uncovering Chinese espionage aimed at sabotaging TPP negotiations—the author recounts decades of covert battles. These untold stories of espionage and clandestine missions illuminate the hidden history of Japan’s Heisei era.
