Synopsis
When Jun Kurisaka's fiancee, Shoko Sekine, applies for a credit card at his urging, she is denied due to a declaration of bankruptcy several years ago. What's strange is that Shoko is as shocked as Jun: when she disappears, Jun begins to suspect that she's not really Shoko at all but an impostor. Where is the real Shoko? Did she relinquish her identity willingly or was she the victim of foul play? And just who is the woman Jun fell in love with?

Publisher's Note
Here is a deftly written thriller that is also a "deep and moody" (NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW) journey through the dark side of Japan's consumer-crazed society. Ordinary people plunge into insurmountable personal debt and fall prey to dangerous webs of underground creditors-so dangerous, in fact, that murder may be the only way out. A beautiful young woman vanishes, and the detective quickly finds she is not whom she claims to be. Is she a victim, a killer, or both? In a country that tracks its citizens at every turn, how can two women claim the same identity and then disappear without a trace?

When a beautiful Japanese woman vanishes, is she a victim, a killer, or both? In a country that tracks its citizens at every turn, how can two women claim the same identity and then disappear without a trace?

Industry Reviews
"The sparse style and measured pace of Alfred Birnbaum's translation suit Honma's painstaking investigative methods and the somber tone of Ms. Miyabe's searching theme--the value of the individual in a consumer-mad economy that punishes debt with ruin and disgrace, even death."
New York Times Book Review - Marilyn Stasio (02/16/1997)

"In the year of its Japanese publication (1992), 'All She Was Worth' won prizes as both best mystery and best novel tout court--a phenomenon that may be accounted for by its artful blending of puzzle-solving and social commentary."
Washington Post Book World - Dennis Drabelle (02/23/1997)

"But despite the slow pace and occasional odd locutions, Miyabe's sharp social critique hold our interest, and she resolves the numerous disparate elements of the case with satisfying clarity."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Peter Handel (03/16/1997)

"Miyabe's first English translation was named Best Mystery of 1992 in Japan. Fans of Ross Macdonald and Julian Symons will have no trouble seeing why."
Grundberg
