Japanese Game — Richard Hoyt

The American government is about to get tough with Japan regarding unequal trade practices and infractions on American patents. Soon, though, word reaches Washington that Linda Shive, the 21-year-old daughter of the vice president, has been abducted and sold to a Japanese sex-slave ring owned by one of Japan's most ruthless and powerful godfathers. Desperate to save his daughter without jeopardizing delicate international trade negotiations, Jack Shive calls in James Burlane, a "retired" CIA operative who plays by his own rules.
