Life in modern Tokyo is a blast for Rei Shimura, a young Japanese-American woman who enjoys busy days as an antiques dealer and steamy nights with a devoted new boyfriend.
As her world begins to rapidly and inexplicably unravel, Rei realizes that it will take strength, wit, and a Zen Attitude to survive..
A young martial artist, an aspiring rock singer, and an elderly antiques mentor all become part of Rei\'s search for the killer through the shadows of an ancient culture.
When the temple family turns on Rei -- and the con man who sold the tansu is murdered -- she realizes she\'s opened a Pandora\'s box of deception and murder.
The exquisite tansu turns out to be a fake: the worst deal Rei has ever made.
But things come to a standstill when Rei overpays for a rare old chest of drawers for a wealthy client, the owner of a famous Zen temple in Kamakura.
