Originally written in Japanese, translated to English. A supermarket owner has a shady background and comes out of retirement. A famous detective proves to be a strong adversary. Set in modern day Japan, details of the underground city life enhance the dark drama of this relationship. Compelling read. Hardboiled genre. No smarmy comments, just drama noir.
