Zen Attitude
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Harpercollins
- Publish date: 06/01/1998
Being a private antiques buyer is supposed to be fun. Unfortunately, for Japanese-American Rei Shimura, it can sometimes turn deadly. When she acquires an ancient chest of drawers, she unwittingly unleashes a Pandora's Box of mystery, and becomes a pawn in a long-standing game of envy, theft, and murder. When the antiques dealer from whom she bought the chest is killed, Rei suspects the chest is involved. As she digs into the history of the piece for clues, she finds a suspicious link to one of the most powerful families in Tokyo -- a discovery that will put her own home and life in jeopardy. Rei will need her quick wit, fast feet, sharp reflexes, and above all else a Zen attitude to solve the murder, uncover the truth about this family, and evade a killer who is willing to go to any length to secure the treasure of a lifetime.
"A terrific debut, crafted with surprising twists and turns and steeped in the flavor of contemporary Japan. Writing in a style as smart and snappy as her heroine, Sujata Massey brings a fresh perspective to the traditional mystery. Readers are in for a real treat". -- Jonnie Jacobs
"Massey blasts her way into fiction with The Salaryman's Wife, a cross-cultural mystery of manners with a decidedly sexy edge". -- Janet Evanovich
