February, 1940. In San Francisco's Chinatown, fireworks explode as
the city celebrates Chinese New Year with a Rice Bowl Party, a
three day-and-night carnival designed to raise money and support
for China war relief. Miranda Corbie is a 33-year-old private
investigator who stumbles upon the fatally shot body of Eddie
Takahashi. The Chamber of Commerce wants it covered up. The cops
acquiesce. All Miranda wants is justice--whatever it costs. From
Chinatown tenements, to a tattered tailor's shop in Little Osaka,
to a high-class bordello draped in Southern Gothic, she shakes down
the city--her city--seeking the truth.
