After being nominated for The Walking Man in 2007 and for The Ice Wanderer and Other Stories in 2008, Jiro Taniguchi has been honored with another Eisner Award nomination in 2009, with Quest for the Missing Girl.
Compared to Taniguchi's other Eisner-nominated books, Quest for the Missing Girl is not a collection of short stories -- it's a complete-in-one-volume seinen manga mystery about Shiga, a mountain climber who is charged with finding his best friend's missing daughter. With a combination of wits, determination and surprisingly, his mountain-climbing skills, Shiga tries to find answers in the mean streets, back alleys and skyscrapers of Tokyo.
