Asa Nonami (born 1960) is a Japanese novelist. After leaving Waseda University, she worked for an advertising agency before beginning her literary career. Her debut novel, "Kōfuku na Chōshoku," was selected for an excellence award in the Japan Mystery and Suspense Awards in 1988. Through subjects including crime, family conflict, caregiving, and war, her fiction traces the fear and isolation of people caught up in traumatic events and the emotional consequences left among victims, perpetrators, and their families. Her best-known work, "Kogoeru Kiba," received the Naoki Prize in 1996. The police novel begins when a man suddenly bursts into flames in a late-night family restaurant and animal bite marks are discovered on his body. Female detective Takako Otomichi is paired with an older male officer who refuses to treat her as an equal, and their investigation into a series of attacks by a wolfdog exposes both her isolation within a male-dominated police force and the loss underlying the crimes.
