Meet Elvis Cole, L.A. private eye . . . he quotes Jiminy Cricket and carries a .38. Heā€™s a literate, wisecreacking Vietnam vet who is determined never to grow up. The blonde who walked into Coleā€™s office was the bestlooking woman heā€™d seen in weeks. The only thing that kept her from rating a perfect ā€œ10ā€ was the briefcase on one arm and the uptight hotel magnate on the other. Bradley Warren had lost something very valuableā€”something that belonged to someone else: a rare thirteenth-century Japanese manuscript called the Hagakure. Just about all Cole knew about Japanese culture heā€™d learned from reading Shogun, but he knew a lot about crooksā€”and what he didnā€™t know his sociopathic sidekick, Joe Pike, did. Together their search begins in L.A.ā€™s Little Tokyo and the nest of notorious Japanese mafia, the yakuza, and leads to a white-knuckled adventure filled with madness, murder, sexual obsession, and a stunning double-whammy ending. For Elvis Cole, itā€™s just another dayā€™s work.
