The Adventures of Yutaro
May 4, 2008
Based on a true story but names have been changed to protect the innocent. The killer was never convicted. On a side note, he was largely credited with founding the art of sushi-making in Japan.

Your stories gets better and better! Love the art, love the pace of the story, love the feel of the japanese setting. Clever ending, one of your best endings to date.
I am just looking forward for you to publish the book!
