About this listen

A young woman with a foothold in two cultures, Rei Shimura has gone wherever fortune and her unruly passions have led her throughout her chaotic 20s. Now, after the streamers for her 30th birthday celebration have been taken down, the Japanese-American antiques dealer and part-time sleuth finds herself with an assignment to find and authenticate an ancient Middle Eastern pitcher that disappeared from Iraq's national museum.

The piece is believed to be in the hands of a wealthy Japanese collector, whose passion for beauty extends to Rei herself. But when a devastating typhoon hits Tokyo, Rei is trapped with the object of her investigation - and with much, much more than the fate of an ancient pitcher at risk.

I am very familiar with Sujata Massey's great books and so I didn't hesitate when this one came out on audible. I am more than happy with this recording because it is even more fun than reading the novel was!

The narrator has a beautiful voice and the accents, especially the japanese ones, are perfect. As an added bonus, now I know how to pronounce the japanese words and names. Highly recommended audiobook for all Rei fans and those that like a good gripping novel with a unique main character.

Beautiful, well-narrated and a great story!
