Summary
A Japanese PI unsettles Mas Arai, a Hiroshima survivor, and the other elderly Japanese-American gardeners who hang out at Wishbone Tanaka's Lawnmower Shack in the seedy L.A. suburb of Altadena. The PI's disturbing questions concern Joji Haneda, reported dead in… the atomic blast, but who was actually still alive in California in June 1999. A month later, Haneda is brutally murdered, and Mas must revisit his past in order to solve the crime. Some descriptions of violence and some strong language. 2004.
