Dark Roshamon Style Thriller

CW: child death, animal abuse

I read this in Japanese along with the audiobook and oooooof, what a ride.

Each chapter had me gripped. Glued to the pages to find out what happens next.

The story was simple but we'll executed. I liked how each chapter was told from a different perspective so you could really understand what was going through each person's mind.

The Japanese narrator was great, matching her voice to each dcharacter so they were distinct.

The Japanese is around upper N2/N1. The text is very dense at times, but if you've read a lot of murder mysteries then this will be an easy read.
