He Should Have Been More Discerning In His Choice of Friends
Mom was right: if you want to be a successful criminal, avoid joining an organization that might cut off one of your fingers when you make a blunder. This guy was 44 years old when he became a fugitive, only slightly above average height, and has four missing front teeth that by now might be hidden by a little dental work, a mask or a beard. He’s so ordinary, he could have blended into any crowd, no problem, if it weren’t for that pesky missing ring finger on his left hand.

Writing mystery books set in Tokyo is mostly what I do, but I also blog about the odd stuff I see every day in Japan. I'm a graduate of Stanford University and the Sendagaya Japanese Institute in Tokyo, and a member of the International Thriller Writers, the Mystery Writers of America, and Sisters In Crime. When I'm not in Tokyo, I live in San Francisco. I also host a travel site called The Tokyo Guide I Wish I'd Had, so if you're headed to Japan and want to check out the places I take my friends when they're in town, take a look!
