    About this series

    Tokyo, the summer of 1990. Disgraced London Met detective Pete Bond has reinvented himself as an English teacher, but his embarrassing secret is nothing compared to the dark event in Suzi Sloane's earlier life. Suzi, a promiscuous Londoner, who supplements her day job by topless dancing in a Shinjuku Kabukicho hostess bar, is considering an offer from Shigeru, a customer at Club O. Meanwhile, Pete crosses paths with Dieter, a drug-dealing German, who appears to be involved in more than drugs and seemingly has a connection with Shigeru.



    Before he can properly investigate Dieter, Pete becomes infatuated by Suzi in Roppongi, the infamous central Tokyo expat bar area.



    ‘Tokyo Noir: Neon Identity’ is part crime novel, part study of psychosexual obsession, and in noir tradition, the sleazy Kabukicho and Roppongi backdrops effectively become characters as Pete tries to rationalise his growing obsession with his femme fatale and discover the link between her, Dieter and the shady Shigeru. But things are more complicated than they first appear.
