This review is from: The Case of the Russian Diplomat (Mass Market Paperback)

Masao Masuto has a rose garden and practices Zen Buddhism. He is also the only Nisei detective in the Beverly Hills Police Department, a man who uses karate, not guns, and who brings to his job both a wry, reflective humor and an almost intuitive skill for the riddle of a crime. Here, in the second of a series featuring this complexsao finds himself risking his job-and the life of his child Ana-on the strength of his guesses.

In the predawn hours an unidentified man is found in the lavish pool of the Beverly Glen Hotel-not a mark on the body. A few hours later a guest is murdered. By the time an officious FBI agent has been dispatched from Washington to "handle" the case, Masuto is following his own leads into a world of espionage and terrorism.
