Buddha Kiss - Peter Tasker

Kazuo Mori #2

Buddha Kiss is a thriller that glows with the confidence of its insider perspective, blending headlines about cult poisonings in Japan and tales of Hong Kong money-market manipulation with a strong fictional basis. Peter Tasker, a British writer based in Tokyo where he also works as a financial analyst, sets up two unusual investigators: a Japanese private eye named Mori and a British securities expert named Mitchell. He turns the pair loose on separate murder and swindling cases that lead them to the bizarre Peace Technology cult and a sushi banquet featuring the dreaded delicacy of poisonous blowfish.
