Title: Japanese whodunit in the tradition of alan furst
Product review: It may seem hackneyed to say that Libby is a master story teller, but, since that is what novels are all about -- He is! I was totally enthralled by his ability to capture the setting: the Japanese countryside at the turn of the century during a smallpox epidemic. Everyone suspects everyone else -- and there is a sinister undertone of both romance and danger. Strongly recommend this book.
