The reluctant Ronin

Mystery Police Procedural

James Melville

Authors: James Melville
Print type: BOOK

Description:

Another intriguing case for Otani, a senior Japanese policeman. A foreigner is found dead in a burnt out building with which she had no obvious connection. There are various twists and turns before the final arrest. The authentic contemporary Japanese setting adds interest to the novels in this series. The central character has fascinating depths, and a dry wit. We see something of the dynamics of Otani's family, and his relationship with his team is further developed. There is much more to enjoy than a simple police procedural.
