Blood Hina: A Mas Arai Mystery (Hardcover)
$24.99A favorite local author, Ms. Hirahara has done it again! Old, cantankerous Mas Arai has once more fallen into having to solve a crime. And this one is a real mess because his friend is involved – sort of. Pretty much against his wishes, Mas has agreed to stand up for Harou – at his wedding! But before the nuptials occur, a set of ancient Japanese dolls disappear from Harou’s fiancé’s house. Mas suspects the drug-addled daughter of the fiancé but everyone else is pointing the finger at Harou. Mas knows this couldn’t be true and sets out to clear his friend and fellow WWII atom bomb survivor’s name. There’s a lot of fascinating history in this tale – as always. It’s certainly not one you want to miss if you’ve enjoyed Mas’ previous adventures.

Description
Fiction. Latino/Latina Studies. Edited by Daniel A. Olivas. LATINOS IN LOTUSLAND brings to life Latino denizens of the Los Angeles area resulting in a complex and diverse group of characters: young and old, gay and straight, rich and poor, the newly arrived and the well established. We meet aggressive journalists, cement pourers, disaffected lovers, drunken folklorico dancers, successful curanderos, teenage slackers, aging artists, wrestling saints, aimless druggies, people made of paper, college students, and even a private detective in search of a presumed-dead gonzo writer. Setting for these stories range from East L.A. to Malibu, Hollywood to the San Fernando Valley, Venice Beach to El Sereno. This anthology brings together established and newer writers who provide beautiful, powerful, and eloquent tales.
