Dear Judge Ichiro,by Trevor Ryan, Zeus Publications 2007. Available through Amazon.com. Murder in Tokyo
Available at this link on Amazon 日本国内はこちらへ Within Australia, click here As spring comes to Tokyo, it becomes clear that a British English teacher has been killed. Thomas Browne, believing himself responsible, begins a series of recollections to discover how a handful of innocent and unrelated quotations could possibly have led to the tragic death. He recalls the bizarre letters exchanged with ‘Ichiro’, a Tokyo judge who both led and followed him along the path to the crime; who both enlightened and disoriented him. With comic sensitivity and naivety, Thomas weaves together the colourful characters, ideas, parables, and epiphanies that compel him inexorably towards an ironic but shocking murder.
