Best Mystery and Best Novel of the Year in Japan. While a lone detective, recovering from a gunshot wound, limps through the back streets of Tokyo in search of a woman on the run, he discovers another world--of loan sharks and bankruptcy; of elaborate lies to conceal identity; of bad debts to 'the good life' than can only be paid in blood. A riveting story about people living on the edge of a brittle society--the victims of the throwaway lifestyle of modern Japan.
