Praise for The Tattoo Murder Case
“Like voyeurs, we follow Takagi down the charred streets of bombed-out Tokyo to scenes of fastidiously executed decadence . . . [A] tale of sexual obsession and perversity.”
—The New York Times Book Review
"The Tattoo Murder Case is a delightful, different book, not only because of its unusual setting and premise, but because Takagi is a powerful plotter and constructor of fascinating, complex characters. Introducing American audiences to great foreign mysteries (as well as unusual domestic voices) has become a Soho Press trademark, and almost everything in its catalog is top-notch. The Tattoo Murder Case is a high-water mark even by those high standards."
—The A.V. Club
“Clever, kinky, highly entertaining . . . I want more.”
—Washington Post Book World
“Elegant.”
—The Seattle Times
“An engaging, refreshingly different invitation to fictional mayhem.”
—Arizona Daily Star
“Intricate, fantastic and utterly absorbing. More please . . . Calculated to outdo John Dickson Carr in both ghoulishness and ingenuity.”
—Kirkus Reviews
Présentation de l'éditeur
Miss Kinue Nomura survived World War II only to be murdered in Tokyo, her severed limbs left behind. Gone is that part of her that bore one of the most beautiful full-body tattoos ever rendered by her late father. Kenzo Matsushita, a young doctor, must assist his detective brother who is in charge of the case, because he was Kinue's secret lover and the first person on the murder scene.
The Tattoo Murder Case was originally published in 1948; this is the first English translation.

Hard Cover. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. First Edition. 1st US edition (orig pub in Japan in somewhat different form in1948), with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. WINNER OF THE MYSTERY WRITERS CLUB AWARD OF JAPAN in 1949. It remains to this day among the most read of Japanese detective mysteries. Using their flesh as canvas, the yakuza made full body tatoos their badge of defiiance. A seam was left in the design so that they could be collected after death in one piece without distirbing the pattern. The most famous collection is housed in Tokyo University and it is from hthere that a most unusual murder occurs - the victim's own full-body tattoo has been stolen; the "canvas" mutilated. Book.
