Review
"In Buddhist lore, hungry ghosts have huge bellies and needle-thin necks - they cannot swallow the food they crave, and their hunger is insatiable. The Barbary Coast of San Francisco - formerly the city's infamous red-light district and hedonistic playground for sailors - has plenty of hungry ghosts. But the living ghosts are the ones that threaten stuntdouble Darcy Lott when she returns to San Francisco to serve as assistant to her Zen teacher, Leo Garson, in his new zendo."
