Title: Buddha's Money rates no stars from me.
Product review: I started to read Buddha's Money anticipating a good adventure & mystery story placed in Korea. My interest turned to distaste and then to anger at the author, when the 11 year old girl is kidnapped, raped, tortured and then murdered. This is followed by the brutalization, rape and murder of 2 more women. I stopped reading the book after Lady Ahn was beaten up and gang raped. The author hasn't constructed a solid mystery that relies on solving the crime, psychological insight into the characters or narrative detail about Korea -- instead he's presented a tale that lives vicariously from savaging a female underclass. I reqret buying the book and would not assign any stars, if the Amazon.com rating system allowed this.
