Who Is Mr. Satoshi? — Jonathan Lee

A dazzling novel spanning two continents -- and six decades of secrets -- Who is Mr. Satoshi? is a “quietly masterful” (The Independent) work of fiction from the author of High Dive and The Great Mistake.

When his mother dies, Rob “Foss” Fossick -- a fortysomething photographer whose best days already seem to be behind him -- discovers amongst her possessions a package addressed to a “Mr. Satoshi.” Tasked with locating this mysterious figure from his mother's past -- and with the urging of his agent, keen for him to return to work -- Rob travels to Japan. There, with the help of a love hotel receptionist, he follows Mr. Satoshi's trail from the bright lights of Tokyo to the northern city of Sapporo, where he must come to terms with his family's ghosts -- and his own.
