Chronically underemployed Japanese-American sleuth Rei Shimura has taken a freelance gig with a Washington, D.C., alphabet agency that just might have ties to the CIA.

'Girl in a box' is a Japanese expression for a protected, innocent, and somewhat infantile woman. Japanese-American CIA operative Rei Shimura is charged with playing a girl in a box as she goes undercover in a Japanese department store, trying to investigate illicit financial dealings.

This book has much to offer. There's plenty of spy activity and intrigue. There's the mystery of who is behind the misdeeds at Mitsutan department store, which is coupled with a tremendously interesting look at Tokyo culture. The consumerism of elite Tokyo department stores is fascinating, as is the work ethic and culture of the Tokyo workforce. I really enjoyed this book, and am delighted to discover that this is one of a series. I will surely look into the others. ( )

This book in the Sei series does not follow the previous delve into Japanese culture. This novel is more a story about how Sei works to solve personal problems. It is a good read if you are following the series and want to read more about the characters. ( )

Kelpo luettavaa ja kokonaisuutenahan sarja on koukuttava. Tämä osa on ehkä parempi kuin jotkut muut. ( )

Rei is more shallow, the plot a bit unbelievable. Not bad, but not as good as the early books. I hope Ms. Massey returns to form soon. ( )

Not as good as previous books. Rei without a boyfriend+family is less interesting. ( )
