Three Lives of Tomomi Ishikawa Paperback - 2013
by Benjamin Constable
An enticing voice in fiction draws readers through the streets of Paris and New York on an intricate adventure. It's twisting, playful, and darkly entertaining. A suicide note. Hidden clues. A deadly game of wits. An imaginary cat. A paean to a strange and addictive friendship.
Summary
Whatwriter Benjamin Constable needs is a real-life adventure wilder than hisrampant imagination. And who better to shake up his comfortableEnglishman-in-Paris routine than the enigmatic Tomomi Butterfly Ishikawa, whohas just sent a cryptic suicide note?
Shes planted a slew of cluesin the pages of her journal, on thehard drive of her computer, tucked away in public places, under flowerpots, andbehind statues. Heartbroken, confused, and accompanied by an imaginary cat, Benembarks upon a scavenger hunt leading to charming and unexpected spaces, fromthe hidden alleys of Paris to the cobblestone streets of New York City.
But Butterflys posthumous messages are surprisingly well informedfor the words of a dead person, and theyre full of confessions of a pastdarkened by insanity, betrayal, and murder. The treasures Ben is unearthing areinstallments of a gruesome memoir. Now he must draw a clear line between thereal and surreal if he is to save himself, Butterfly, and what remains of theircrazy and amazing friendship.
