Description: In the aftermath of his partner's murder, Korean-American bodyguard -- and reluctant investigator -- Allen Choice follows an intricate and twisting trail that leads him back to the death of his father 20 years earlier and, ultimately, to the true meaning of the American dream. This extraordinary hybrid of crime and literary novel, from one of today's most important Asian-American writers, offers a new direction for noir fiction. Slowly unraveling the past and present, long-simmering familial tensions, buried betrayals, and the subtle conflicts of race and class, Over the Shoulder is a compelling story about one man whose personal journey is as much of a mystery as the killing he sets out to solve.
