TOKYO NOIR (Spanish Edition)
Â
A darkly comic sequel to Tokyo Vice that is equal parts history lesson, true-crime exposĂ©, and memoir. Itâs 2008, and itâs been a while since Jake Adelstein was the only gaijin crime reporter for the Yomiuri Shimbun. The global economy is in shambles, Jake is off the police beat but still chain-smoking clove cigarettes, and Tadamasa Goto, the most powerful boss in the Japanese organised crime world, has been banished from the yakuza, giving Adelstein one less enemy to worry about â for the time being. But as he puts his life back together, he discovers that he may be no match for his greatest enemy â himself. And Adelstein has a different gig these days: due diligence work, or using his investigative skills to dig up information on entities whose bosses would prefer that some things stay hidden. The underworld isnât what it used to be.
