A perilous race across Japan to uncover the geisha’s secret.
Harry and Aunt Jessica’s holiday tour of Japan takes a dramatic turn when Harry witnesses the stabbing of a geisha. As the woman dies in his arms, she entrusts him with a secret and dangerous mission, to deliver a key to White Tiger. The geisha has mistaken Harry for someone called Fox. Who is the real Fox, where and who is White Tiger and what does the key open? Unless he and Aunt Jessica can unravel the mystery, they too could end up dead.
Perfect for those who like a cozy whodunit with a touch of humour in a modern travel setting and are fans of Agatha Christie and Elizabeth Peters.
What readers are saying: –
‘As always Judith Cranswick expertly weaves her tour-guide experience and lovely descriptions into the plot, so that the armchair tourist has just as much fun as the armchair detective.’
‘Another travelling triumph for Miss Cranswick who seems to have all the right sensibilities to juggle crime and humour. This is an admirable undertaking that not everybody manages. I particularly enjoy the settings within her novels although it does give me the pang to travel. Even if there is going to be murder!’
‘This book is perfect for anyone who loves to settle down with a cozy mystery, with a fascinating backdrop. ’
