1. Nightshade
First in an all-new series of mysteries that could happen only in Tokyo...
Yumi Hata went to school in the U.S., but now—back in Tokyo, living with her parents and working as an English translator—she no longer fits in with the fiercely traditional Japanese. If not for her friend Rika, Yumi would feel completely isolated, so when Rika is found dead—suspected of jisatsu, taking part in a suicide pact—Yumi is devastated.
Fortunately, the police investigator in charge of Rika’s case is Yumi’s old schoolmate Kenji, who also wants to clear Rika’s name. As Yumi and Kenji dig up more evidence, they discover that Rika’s “suicide” is not what it seemed.
Chasing Rika’s murderer, Yumi and Kenji encounter doll-faced Lolita fashionistas, trendy bars inhabited by the social elite, and the dark side of a suicide pact website. The clock is ticking as they race to find the killer before the next victim is targeted...
2. Fallen Angel
The dangers of wealth and beauty emerge from the shadows in the latest Only in Tokyo Mystery...
Like a modern geisha, Hoshi makes a handsome living as the #1 hostboy at Club Nova, pouring champagne and whispering sweet nothings into the ears of women who pay him a fortune for the pleasure of his company. But the party's over when Tokyo Detective Kenji Nakamura begins looking into the death of one of Hoshi's customers, a young woman found dead after spending an evening with him.
As Kenji's search for the killer leads him deep into the red-light district, the last person he expects to run into is part-time English translator, Yumi Hata. But fear for her friend Coco has drawn her into Club Nova, and she agrees to help Kenji hunt down the predator who is targeting the desperate women of Tokyo.
Kenji and Yumi's chase leads them from love hotels to a hidden museum where family secrets unfold like a diabolical puzzle, trying to catch the killer before it's too late...
3. Idolmaker
In the wake of a deadly disaster, a killer seizes a perfect opportunity to commit the perfect crime...
As the dust settles after an earthquake strikes Tokyo, it's discovered that the reason the Tabata Shrine's head priest was late to perform a wedding is because he was dead. Detective Kenji Nakamura is assigned to investigate, but although all clues point to one of Japan's most idolized pop stars as the prime suspect, he knows that's impossible--the idol and her band were swept away in the tsunami following the quake.
Meanwhile, part-time English translator Yumi Hata discovers a shocking truth about the dead idol. As mourning fans whip themselves into a media frenzy, can she and Kenji track down the killer who's desperate to protect the secret that will rock the Japanese entertainment industry more powerfully than any earthquake?
Like the other books in the intriguing Only in Tokyo mystery series,Idolmaker takes you behind closed doors into corners of Japan where few foreigners dare to go, and introduces you to fascinating characters you won't soon forget.
4. Painted Doll
When Tokyo Detective Kenji Nakamura’s phone rings with the news that his mother’s death ten years ago wasn’t an accident, his world begins to unravel. New evidence links her to a young woman, whose body was found dolled up like a movie star and tossed in the gutter like an abandoned plaything. With the help of part-time English translator Yumi Hata, Kenji begins to piece together what really happened the night his mother died. But the closer he gets to discovering who killed the Painted Doll, the more he fears that the truth will destroy all that’s left of his fractured family.
