"A captivating mystery with just the right touch of paranormal . . . a great read for those who enjoy a bit of gore, historical fiction, and mythology in their mysteries." - Portland Book Review "engrossed with the mystery, loving the combination of supernatural and historical details. ... Though the book had undeniably dark and creepy moments, the humor helped balance it out." - 52 Letters in the Alphabet When the trail of a head-collecting serial killer in Japan takes a supernatural turn, an unlikely pair of journalists must get the story without losing their heads. Akio Tsukino is bored. Akio Tsukino is a staff photographer at a Tokyo newspaper, stuck in the back pages, shooting parades and grade school plays. When a serial killer starts chopping off heads in nearby Kofu, Akio sees a chance to break out of the routine and prove himself. It never occurs to him he'd end up in the path of a monster. Masami Sato, a top staff writer on the police beat, is a tenacious woman making a name for herself in a male-dominated news world. When she's sent to investigate the serial killer, she'll stop at nothing to get the scoop. If only Akio would get out of her way. As they struggle to get along, and ghost stories of evil samurai creep into their investigation, Akio and Masami soon realize that the price for getting the story may be their own heads.
Autorenporträt
Tristram Lowe writes about monsters, and sometimes, scary things too. He is a student of the Japanese language and culture and a lifelong fantasy reader. He is also a competitive fencing coach, so it's likely a sword fight or two will show up in his books. Tristram has been crafting fantastical tales since the first grade, when he penciled a spooky story about a haunted house in his Big Chief tablet. Raised in the mountains of Colorado, he spent two or three lifetimes in Los Angeles, and now enjoys hikes through mossy trees and rainy board game nights in Oregon with his wife, their son, and their elderly cat.
