Publisher Description
Japan's lost decade has left thousands of people homeless, scraping by in parks and cardboard boxes throughout Tokyo. When one of these forgotten men is murdered, his brother hires a private investigator. To find the killer, he must confront police indifference, hostility from the crime syndicate yakuza, and the closed silence of the down-and-out themselves.

A Death in Ueno
This is a very short short story (mostly white space) which captures almost none of the flavor of Ueno in Tokyo.

A Death in Ueno
Excellently told short story about the underside of Japan, rarely discussed in literature. Well written.
