Crichton's eighth novel published under his own name and eighteenth overall, Rising Sun unravels the details of a murder in the Los Angeles headquarters of Nakamoto, a fictional Japanese corporation. Although a detective/murder mystery novel at first glance, Rising Sun deals with the controversial subject of Japanese-American relations, and questions the premise that foreign direct investment in the high-technology sectors of the United States is beneficial. Throughout the book, the differences between the Japanese and Western mindsets are highlighted, especially in the areas of business strategy and corporate culture.
