Newcomer - as newly transferred Tokyo Police Detective Kyochiro
Kaga is assigned to a baffling murder. Detective Kyochiro Kaga of
the Tokyo Police Department has just been transferred to a new
precinct in the Nihonbashi area of Tokyo. Newly arrived, but with a
great deal of experience, Kaga is promptly assigned to the team
investigating the murder of a woman. But the more he investigates,
the greater number of potential suspects emerges. It isn't long
before it seems nearly all the people living and working in the
business district of Nihonbashi have a motive for murder. To
prevent the culprit from eluding justice, Kaga must unravel all the
secrets surrounding a complicated life. Buried somewhere in the
woman's past, in her family history, and the last few days of her
life is the clue that will lead to the murderer. This is the second
appearance in English of Police detective Kyochiro Kaga, the
protagonist of the critically acclaimed Malice. 'Detective Kaga
pursues the case of a murdered woman from suspect to suspect,
through a nostalgia-tinged Tokyo of family-run shops and Ginza bar
girls. Clever and charming' Sunday Times
