Last Stop Osaka
Acerca deste livro eletrónico
Welcome to Ramentown, a back-alley Osaka noodle shop where trouble is always on the menu...
Jake Holiday didn’t come to Japan to solve mysteries. He came to disappear. Burned out by tragedy and haunted by his wife’s death, the former LAPD detective spends his days slinging bowls at Ramentown, his gruff father-in-law’s noodle joint. By night, he drowns his grief in whisky.
Until his eccentric drinking buddy, Toru, is arrested for the brutal murder of one of the city’s most glamorous hostesses.
The police want a quick confession. A dirty inspector wants the file closed. The yakuza want their thirty million yen back. Jake just wanted to perfect his broth. But no way is he letting his only friend rot in a cell.
To clear Toru’s name, Jake must navigate Osaka’s strange underbelly of high-end hostess clubs, magical maid cafes and underground otaku hideouts. In this city, everyone has a secret. And someone is willing to kill to keep theirs hidden.
They say ramen is life. But for Jake, it’s about to become a matter of life or death...
