The only thing that kept her from rating a perfect \"10\" was the briefcase on one arm and the uptight hotel magnate on the other. Bradley Warren had lost something very valuable--something that belonged to someone else: a rare thirteenth-century Japanese manuscript called the Hagakure. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Just about all Cole knew about Japanese culture he'd learned from reading \u003ci\u003eShogun\u003c\/i\u003e, but he knew a lot about crooks--and what he didn't know his sociopathic sidekick, Joe Pike, did. Together their search begins in L.A.'s Little Tokyo and the nest of notorious Japanese mafia, the yakuza, and leads to a white-knuckled adventure filled with madness, murder, sexual obsession, and a stunning double-whammy ending. For Elvis Cole, it's just another day's work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eStalking the Angel\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"\u003ci\u003eStalking the Angel\u003c\/i\u003e is a righteous California book: intelligent, perceptive, hard, clean.\"\u003cb\u003e--James Ellroy\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Out on the West Coast, where private eyes thrive like avocado trees, Robert Crais has created an interesting and amusing hero in Elvis Cole.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eThe Wall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Devotees of the rock 'em, sock 'em school should find  \u003ci\u003eStalking the Angel\u003c\/i\u003e] tasty.\"\u003cb\u003e--\u003ci\u003eThe San Diego Union\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobert Crais\u003c\/b\u003e is the #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling author of more than twenty novels, many of them featuring private investigator Elvis Cole and his laconic ex-cop partner, Joe Pike.
