"The characters ring true, the ambience is intriguing, and the violence has its purposes, not just as a gratuitous show but as an evocation of the deeper darkness of human nature." -- John Farris

Usually mails within 12 hours, full buyer protection, refund -- our business is founded on your satisfaction. From Kirkus ReviewsAn intelligent and suspenseful follow-up to Mantis (1993) . The extreme violence, however, may not be to everyone's liking. Joey Tanaka, the half-Japanese, half-American forensic pathologist, is summoned to his native Japan after the sudden death of his half-brother, whom he had crippled in a karate match when they were youths. Joey has never grappled with his guilt over the incident, and the death, which is certified as the kind of congestive failure quadriplegics often suffer, only serves to reinforce his emotions. Complicating matters is the fact that his girlfriend, Rachel (who still bears the psychological scars of being abducted in the first novel) , has accompanied him and that he must deal with his cousin Ken Sato's racist hatred of all things (and people) Western; 1.00 x 9.50 x 6.50; 320 pages .
