(Rei Shimura, book 1)
Sujata Massey
"A terrific debut, crafted with surprising twists and turns and steeped in the flavor of contemporary Japan. Writing in a style as smart and snappy as her heroine, Sujata Massey brings a fresh perspective to the traditional mystery. Readers are in for a real treat."
