As Japan prepares to host the Olympic Games an English exchange student is bludgeoned to death in a love hotel. She lies in an empty room with a dead spider for morbid company. Could this be a calling card from her killer?

The world's eyes are on the Japanese police and Commissioner Isao Shindo is desperate for a lead. But before his department descends into disarray he hears of the return of his old protege, Kosuke Iwata.

Iwata wants no part in an investigation that means stepping back into a past he had no intention of revisiting. Until he is is given an offer he can't refuse.

Black Suit City is a novel of lies, power and secrets. As Iwata attempts to uncover a city's darkest secrets he encounters old ghosts and new whispering from its hidden corners.
