Tokyo Vice: An American Reporter on the Police Beat in Japan by Jake Adelstein

I treated this book as fiction, after reading some posts about how a few things in this book seemed exaggerated. It took me a while to get through the book, but I did find it very interesting yet reiterated things I already knew. The most interesting part of the book was the Goto story, though it took a shorter part towards the end. 

I ask appreciate Jake’s willingness to give homage to those who have helped him with his career, as well as putting light on victims in human trafficking. He made sure to give respect to these women, who were manipulated into this type of work.
