All She Was Worth by Miyuki Miyabe

3.0

I enjoyed this one. It's a straightforward police procedural, old school style, but it kept my interest and I liked that one of the contributing factors behind the crime, which she discussed in detail, was the credit crisis of the 80's in Japan (and the ongoing issue of consumer debt. Really she went into a little too much detail, but I was interested so I didn't care. But mostly, I really liked the gentle, polite detective Shunsuke and the descriptions of Japanese culture/society.
