Aki is a Japanese mystery/thriller author who is taking a press tour in the US. She has decided that she is not interested in writing the next book in the series, but her experience in San Francisco changes her mind. She gets enmeshed in a real life murder/heist/mob deal and has to work with a small town sheriff to figure out what is going on, why people are dying, and how to remain safe herself. This becomes motivation for her to begin writing again. The fun in this film is the cross between small town US culture, Japanese mystery author, and a truly strange crime scenario. It is quite intriguing and well done.
