Critics Review

An intriguing mashup of police procedural and golden age puzzle mystery - Guardian

This charming, gentle mystery, with its dogged, insightful investigator whose unorthodox approach spreads calm rather than confusion, is a thing of joy - Irish Independent

A unique take on the genre … mesmerising … this is a different kind of mystery novel. A delight to read - Spectator

For those who like their crime fiction layered with riddles within enigmas, [Keigo Higashino] is a master - Irish News

Detective Kaga has something of Columbo about him, zeroing in on the awkward inconsistency with seemingly artless accuracy. In a series of chapters that could almost be short stories, Kaga pursues the case of a murdered woman from suspect to suspect, through a nostalgia-tinged Tokyo of family-run shops and Ginza bar girls. Clever and charming - Sunday Times
