A review by littletaiko
Diamond Solitaire by Peter Lovesey

3.0

While this was a bit disjointed I couldn't help but like Peter Diamond and his wry little observations. He is no longer with the police force and has started working security at a department store. A little Japanese girl is found locked in the store and nobody has come forward to claim her. Furthermore she doesn't speak and appears to be autistic. Diamond feels compelled to track down her family. Through some crazy turn of events involving trips to NYC and Japan with the help of a famous sumo wrestler, the truth comes out regarding the girl's family. I didn't buy into Diamond's actions but he was so darn charming it didn't bother me as much as it should have.
