Content warnings: murder, reference to sexual assault
Overall one of 赤川次郎's better books. The mystery is intriguing, the tension is held tight, and the ending is rapid fire without a long wrap up. The ending was actually a little bit too rapid fire, but I enjoyed it immensely anyways due to the aforementioned long tension.
This is harder than most other books I've read by the same author. I wouldn't call it a particularly difficult book, but compared to his other works it uses a wider range of vocabulary and expressions and leans less on dialogue scenes.
I really wish this had been made into a movie.
