Barry Lancet,bellaandmax sex videos author of the new thriller “Japantown,” will speak on Saturday, Oct. 19, from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the Little Tokyo Branch of the Los Angeles Public Library, 203 S. Los Angeles St. (at Second Street).
San Francisco antiques dealer Jim Brodie recently inherited a stake in his father’s Tokyo-based private investigation firm, which means the single father of six-year-old Jenny is living a busy intercontinental life, traveling to Japan to acquire art and artifacts for his store and con-sulting on Brodie Security’s caseload at home and abroad.
One night, an entire family is gunned down in San Francisco’s bustling Japantown neighbor-hood, and Brodie is called on by the SFPD to decipher the lone clue left at the crime scene: a unique Japanese character printed on a slip of paper drenched in blood.
Brodie can’t read the clue. But he may have seen it before — at the scene of his wife’s death in a house fire four years ago.
With his deep array of Asian connections and fluency in Japanese, Brodie sets out to solve a seemingly perfect crime and at the same time learn whether his wife’s tragic death was more than just an accident. And as he unravels a web of intrigue stretching back centuries and con-nected to the murders in San Francisco, the Japantown killer retaliates with a new target: Brodie’s daughter.
“An elegantly brutal thriller, ‘Japantown’ is reminiscent of classic Daniel Silva and Barry Eisler,” said New York Timesbestselling author J.T. Ellison. “Lancet’s unique background bleeds authenticity into the story. ‘Japantown’ is a bold and exciting debut.”
Lancet has a unique perspective of Japan and America, having spent a majority of his adult life in Japan. He landed a position at one of the country’s top publishing houses, and in 25 years developed numerous books across many fields — mostly on Japanese culture, including art, crafts, cuisine, history, fiction, Zen gardens, martial arts, and Asian philosophy — all of which were sold in the U.S., Europe, and the rest of the world.
