  Absenting himself for a brief intimacy with a former girlfriend, Hugh Mcpherson leaves his surfing-obsessed sons on an isolated California beach. When he returns, the eleven-year-old twins have vanished. A ferocious riptide has swept Takumi and Hitoshi out to sea, their bodies unrecovered.  
  Devastated by the loss, Hugh and his Japanese wife Setsuko divorce. Severing all ties to America, Setsuko returns to Japan to live with her father, Kazuki Ono, a prominent author of mind-bending novels.  
  After grieving for ten years and longing for Setsuko, Hugh swims out to sea to drown himself. As he sinks, his sons appear to him, holding the last letter that he had sent to their mother, begging her forgiveness. Abandoning his suicide, Hugh swims back to shore. The incident awakens memories that throw doubt on the accepted version of his sons’ deaths. His doubts are intensified when he learns that Kazuki Ono has come to California to finish a novel called Fingal’s Cave, the tale of a brash American who marries a Japanese woman against the wishes of her father, a powerful businessman with ties to the yakuza.  
  Provoked by his memories and by obliquely revealing passages found in Kazuki’s books, Hugh begins a quixotic journey across the California landscape, encountering numerous characters of ill-will and cross-purpose who inexorably lead him toward a film-industry firm called Nakamura Reality—and a labyrinth that challenges him to separate reality from fiction to find his way out … and perhaps back to his sons.  
  To understand Japanese culture requires reading between the lines. This is Hugh Mcpherson’s challenge in Nakamura Reality, a beguiling blend of mystery, odyssey, inconsolable loss, and obsession.

  Her job is to catch a serial killer, she never expected to be covering for one. 
  Detective Emily Sinclair has spent her life chasing justice, but when her childhood best friend Ava is brutalized by men who walk free, Emily is forced to confront a hard truth: the system isn’t broken, it’s working exactly as designed. Money buys verdicts, silence, and the right to destroy lives without consequence. 
  That changes when those untouchable men start turning up dead. 
  As bodies pile up, Emily finds herself erasing evidence, manipulating crime scenes, and walking a line between law and vengeance. She tells herself she’s protecting Ava. That justice, real justice, sometimes requires getting your hands dirty. 
  Then Rookie Detective Ryan Hunter is assigned to her team. 
  What starts as an obligation quickly becomes a complication Emily never saw coming. The more she tries to keep him at arm’s length, the harder she falls. 
  When Ryan gets too close to the truth, Emily begs Ava to stop. But Ava has her own agenda, and Emily begins to fear Ryan won’t just uncover her secret, he’ll become Ava’s next victim. 
  Now Emily must decide how far she will go to protect a friend, and what happens when the person you’re trying to save becomes the monster you can’t control? 
  In a world where trauma breeds violence, Emily is about to discover that sometimes the greatest threat isn’t the guilty, it’s the ones we’re desperate to protect. 
  TRIGGER WARNING - READ THIS FIRST 
  This book is not for everyone, and that’s okay. This is a dark, suspenseful murder thriller. Despite having a romance element, it is not a romance with a thriller subplot. It is not a redemption story. It explores trauma, rage, misandry, and revenge. 
  Content includes: 
  Graphic violence and murder 
  Sexual assault and trafficking 
  Hostile views of men 
  Feminine rage and misandry
