Dai-sho

Here, by the author of Giri, is a powerful, all-engrossing novel of a lone American up against the cutthroat samurai of Japanese industrialists: An American looking to unravel the mystery of the death of an Asian woman he once loved ... a Japanese secret society linked to a multinational corporation ... a brilliant artist determined to restore his country's ancient glory ... a boy with an eerie sixth sense ... an exotic American woman with even more exotic tastes ... a Chinese triad that rules the Hong Kong underworld-mix with bushido, the samurai code of the Japanese, and the explosive result is dai-sho: "big sword, little sword," a confrontation of East vs. West, a struggle whose only resolution is in the ultimates of life and death. Dai-Sho begins where The Ninja leaves off. It is irresistible storytelling.
