Reviews
On Jan 16 2014, a reader said:
This book has an American half-Japanese heroine, Rei Shimura, who is a Japanese antiques dealer now living in Tokyo. Her boyfriend and eventually fiancé, is a Scottish practioner of international law named Hugh Glendinning. Hugh is involved in a class action lawsuit attempting to get reparations for people forced to engage in slave labor for Japanese companies during World War II, in which Rei naturally becomes very involved.
When two of Hugh’s clients are attacked, and one subsequently dies, Rei begins to try to figure out what is going on. Before she finds out, she is almost killed herself. A complicated story, but giving us fascinating details of present day life in Japan and the different political feelings still alive there, and of the daily life of a culturally mixed family in the US.
