While it's a mystery series, at least so far, Mas Arai is not a cliche amateur detective. This time it's his daughter and son-in-law that find themselves in over their head in a garden renovation and ask Mas to come and help out. Things spin out of control with murder, embezzlement and other complications raising their head. A decent read, and while not a roman noir mystery, it's not a cozy one either.
