Praise
[Garver] has crafted an engaging, if violence-laden, story that introduces readers to the underbelly of Tokyo. There’s plenty of action, suspense, and even some romance as Fisher’s saga unfolds, keeping readers on their toes. [Garver] is able to tell the story at a perfect pace that keeps the reader invested. [He] succeeds in defining the characters through their actions…particularly Fisher, who at first presents as a hot-headed brute, but evolves to become highly sympathetic. This book is fresh and unique, offering a vivid setting and distinctive characters. The author does a fine job with characterization, particularly for Fisher, but also for lesser players who enhance the story.”

“Written by a man who clearly knows his way through the back alleys of the seedier parts of Tokyo, this fast-paced thriller is a rare combination of action, suspense, and cultural insight.”
