The local newspaper called him the Aikido Killer, but he was just a tired old man who had fought back. Sure, he was an Aikido teacher, but so what? He had been unarmed and the three attackers had all carried knives. Why was he in jail for murder? Why? Parker wants to know. Somehow, the District Attorney had found out about Gunner's war record and figured, with a half century of martial art training, he should have been able to defend himself and not killed that poor, innocent boy. Parker doesn't think so and sets out to prove it.

Publisher's Summary
The Aikido-Ka is the second book in The Parker Mystery Series featuring Aikido Sensei Parker, a sometimes Private Eye. Parker's old friend Derek Gunner comes to Parker with a request to find the long lost son of his former army Captain who is dying. Barely excaping that meeting with his life Parker figures his job is done, only to find that instead of going back home and teaching aikido he now has to head to the Chicago suburbs and get the young man out of big time trouble.
He's in Jail for murder and the F.B.I. is screaming for the locals to release him to their custody as well. Parker does what he needs to find a way to save him and in the process finds a stunning woman lawyer that sweeps Parker away like a good Irimi-Nage.
