Enjoyed this book with its focus on Japanese Gardens, since I spent time in Japan studying JG. I wonder if someone who has not can still get the same sense.
It is also a good mystery.
It also explores the phenomena of prisoners who fall in love with their captures. In this case, the whole culture.
I gave only 4 stars for some not believable details. For a book that is so careful with detail, it seems out of place.
The narrator is TERRIBLE! She tries, and fails, to do too many accents and it was sooooo annoying, I almost did not continue.
The book was worth it.
