47th Samurai by Stephen Hunter

[Grandpa Frank]

A fairly good action story. It has to do with the return of a Japanese sword taken in a WWII battle. It has a lot of info about Japanese swords,the yakusa, and the Japanese porn industry. The author is a favorite of mine because he writes a lot of war/sniper stories. Some of the storyline is pretty improbable, like learning to sword fight in a week, or getting along in a murder investigation without speaking any Japanese.
