Azabu Getaway (Detective Hiroshi Series Book 5)

A high-flying executive at one of Tokyo's wealth management firms turns up murdered, and Detective Hiroshi Shimizu is back on the money trail he knows best. His forensic accounting gets cut short by a second body, and by the abduction of two girls from the home of a hotshot wealth manager.

The girls belong to an international couple who seemed to have everything: a large apartment in the high-end Azabu district, top schools, an easy affluence. All of it comes apart in threats and pursuits they cannot begin to explain. Following the money takes Hiroshi into Tokyo's murky financial past and out past Japan's borders, into how overseas investments and tax shelters really work.

Fifth in the Detective Hiroshi series.
