Along the way, Burke also finds himself pulled into the strange orbit of the Tibetan Lama Changpa, a mystic and clairvoyant who sees the dark clouds drawing in around Kita but is helpless to prevent a tragedy, as he follows a trail that ultimately leads to Kita's elite mountain temple where he will face his most deadly challenge ever.

Critic reviews
"John Donohue's Deshi is another excellent tale of clashing cultures, an exquisitely flavored and nuanced mystery." (Chicago Sun-Times)
"Peppered with musings of Eastern philosophy, gritty cop lingo, and occasional understated humor, this mystery with its fresh protagonist will appeal to all kinds of readers, not just martial arts aficionados." (Publishers Weekly)

But the narrator had no idea how to pronounce Japanese words or names ( I can probably live with that) nor any clue what a japanese accent sounds like- his attempt was a cross between Col. Klink from Hogan's Heroes and Peter Sellers' portrayal of Mr. Wang ( a spoof on Charlie Chan) in 'Murder By Death'.
He couldn't even do an hispanic accent for 1 of the detectives. It makes it very difficult to maintain the suspension of disbelief to stay in the story.
Don't do it.
Painful to listen to.
