Harris'S List Of Covent Garden Ladies; Or Man Of Pleasure'S Kalendar For The Year, 1788
Tokyo Express
From "Japan's Agatha Christie" (The Sunday Times): A secluded bay. An apparent lovers' suicide. And a pair of detectives with a nagging suspicion that the pieces don't add up. Can you solve one of the most astonishing literary puzzles ever written? "An irresistible Hitchcockian gem: a fiendishly plotted crime novel told in crisp, elegant prose."--Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train In a rocky cove at Hakata Bay, the bodies of a young and beautiful couple are discovered. Standing on the cold beach, the police see nothing to investigate: The flush of the couple's cheeks and the empty juice bottle speak clearly of cyanide, of a lovers' suicide. But in the eyes of two men, senior detective Torigai Jutaro and Kiichi Mihara, a young gun from Tokyo, something is not quite right. Together, they begin to pick at the knot of a unique and calculated crime. Now widely available in English for the first time, Tokyo Express is celebrated around the world as Seichō Matsumoto's masterpiece.

The life of Lulu Lewis, a retired police detective, took an unforgettable turn when Conrad first introduced himself to her. Unforgettable because: a) Conrad is a special cat. b) Special because he told her so. Yes, that's right, he can talk. (For obvious reasons, this ability remains a closely guarded secret while they live together on her canal boat, The Lark.) Visiting an old friend in Manchester, the pair stumble across a chilling news report about a trail of bodies found across the city that echo a string of cold case murders from Lulu's past in London. Joining forces with the local police, the pair must use every ounce of their intuition in order to find a connection between the seemingly random killings - and track down a ruthless murderer . . .
