Yakuza Moon: Memoirs of a Gangster's Daughter by Shoko Tendo provides a rare glimpse into the world of the Yakuza through Tendo's eyes as the daughter of one of Japan's mob bosses. She has really lived the Yakuza life and has the authentic
Japanese Yakuza tattoos to prove it. Tendo is polite, even demure, but when her tattoos are revealed, you realise just what an unusual life she has lead. The Yakuza tattoos cover Tendo's body, winding up from her wrists across her chest and culminates on her shoulder with the face of a courtesan with a knife clenched between her teeth and her breast exposed.
