I think I should have let my brother stab me . . .Margaret is doing everything in her power to forget home. And Tokyos red light district-teeming with intoxicants, pornography, and seedy love hotels-is almost enough to keep at bay memories of her brother Franks descent into schizophrenia. But sobriety brings the past flooding back, along with a pervasive fear that she, too, is destined to battle mental illness.Working as an English specialist at a training academy for Japanese stewardesses by day, and losing herself at night in drugs, alcohol, and S\u0026amp;M fueled sex in the arms of anonymous men, Margaret numbs her loneliness with self destruction, wondering when shell take things too far. And when she falls for a married man who is part of Tokyos illicit underworld, their relationship might finally force her hand. . . .\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51598816575776,"sku":"NEW0060846844","price":12.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/811hpZv_17L.jpg?v=1778450778","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/lost-girls-and-love-hotels-a-novel-0060846844","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
