A dizzying tale of lust, mystery, and murder–from a beloved Japanese crime fiction author and LGBT icon
The Lady Killer leads a double life in Tokyo’s shadowy underworld. By day, he is a devoted husband and hard worker; by night, he cruises cabaret bars and nightclubs in search of lonely single women to seduce. But now the hunter is being hunted, and in his wake lies a trail of gruesome murders. Who is the culprit? The answer lies tangled in a web of clues–and to find it, he must accept that nothing is what it seems. The Lady Killer pulls from author Masako Togawa’s vibrant personal life as a cabaret performer for Tokyo’s gay nightclub scene during the ’50s and ’60s. Throughout her writing career, Togawa continued to champion the LGBT community as a queer woman–sealing her reputation as one of Japan’s most prominent crime fiction authors and LGBT heroines.Author: Masako Togawa
