## Description

A REMARKABLE, UNIQUE DOUBLE-AWARD-WINNING JAPANESE THRILLER In the wake of a brutal war with a rival cartel, a certain drug lord flees Mexico and ends up halfway around the world, where he runs into a Japanese organ broker doing business in Jakarta. After their fateful meeting, the two of them travel to Japan in order to establish a new business in the organ trade. There, the former cartel leader takes a young, lonely boy under his wing. These three lives gradually become inextricably entangled in a web of crime, violence, and human flesh. And worst of all, this festival of nightmares and viscera seems to be happening in the shadow of a dead Aztec god. Tezcatlipoca is a remarkable crossover literary thriller that won the 165th Naoki Prize - one of the most significant prizes in Japan for popular or genre fiction - and the 34th Yamamoto Shugoro Prize.
