Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Rei Shimura (9)
Chronically underemployed Japanese-American sleuth Rei Shimura has taken a freelance gig with a Washington, D.C., alphabet agency that just might have ties to the CIA. Her mission, should she choose to accept it, is to go undercover as a clerk in a big Tokyo department store. It's a risky assignment, but it also gives Rei a store discount that allows her to freely indulge her shopaholic tendencies. Meanwhile, she's listening in on private conversations, crashing a conference, and fending off the unwanted advances of a couple of the store's executives who seem fascinated by her navel ring. When her cover is blown, Rei is in big trouble. Suddenly she's neck-deep in something very nasty, and it will take all her resourcefulness and unorthodox methods to survive a determined killer.

This book has much to offer. There's plenty of spy activity and intrigue. There's the mystery of who is behind the misdeeds at Mitsutan department store, which is coupled with a tremendously interesting look at Tokyo culture. The consumerism of elite Tokyo department stores is fascinating, as is the work ethic and culture of the Tokyo workforce. I really enjoyed this book, and am delighted to discover that this is one of a series. I will surely look into the others. ( )
