Mystery Woman Sleuth
A young woman with a foothold in two cultures, Rei Shimura
has gone wherever fortune and her unruly passions have led
her throughout her chaotic twenties. Now, after the
streamers for her thirtieth birthday celebration have been
taken down, the Japanese-American antiques dealer and part-
time sleuth finds herself with an assignment to find and
authenticate an ancient Middle Eastern pitcher that
disappeared from Iraq's national museum. The piece is believed to be in the hands of a wealthy
Japanese collector, whose passion for beauty extends to
Rei herself. But when a devastating typhoon hits Tokyo,
Rei is trapped with the object of her investigation-and
with much much more than the fate of an ancient pitcher at
risk.
