From the author of Blue Light Yokohama, preorder the next novel featuring Inspector Kosuke Iwata now! Meredith Nichol was found dead on the lonely train tracks behind Skid Row in Los Angeles. A transgender woman, the police suspect a hate crime. No clues have been left and they have little to go on beyond prejudice and speculation. She's quickly figured for just another lost soul and a cold case with little hope of ever thawing. After leaving behind his life in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police and the terrible events which nearly killed him, Iwata has started a new life working as a private investigator in LA. He spends his days spying on unfaithful spouses and searching for missing persons, and his nights with an unavailable woman. But this uneasy peace is shattered when a voice from his past demands he find Meredith's killer. Reluctantly throwing himself back in to the dangerous existence he only just escaped, Iwata discovers a world of corruption, exploitation and murder - and a river of sin flowing through America's underbelly and deep within his own past.
