From the author of the bestselling Pelican Cove cozy mysteries Meet Meera Patel - college dropout and soon to be murder suspect Life in sleepy college towns in the south follows a predictable pattern. Summers are slow and lazy and campus is almost deserted. Scorching days end in flaming sunsets. Meat cooks on the backyard grills, infusing the air with heady aromas of charcoal and dry rubs.

Meera Patel ...

Nel cuore di Shinjuku, a Tokyo, c'è Goldengai, un piccolo quartiere che resiste a grattacieli e speculazione edilizia. E nel cuore di Goldengai c'è un localino stretto e lungo dove si raccolgono i randagi del posto, siano essi gatti o esseri umani.

A single bowl of tea. A sharpened blade. Only one can decide the fate of a nation. Japan, 1590.
