Keigo Higashino's masterpiece
Won the 31st Edogawa Rampo Award
The youthful days of lush grass and singing birds suddenly shattered like glass.
When beautiful, pure, and real things are destroyed, and cherished memories and dreams are destroyed, hatred begins to germinate and spreads freely...
In this Tsinghua Girls' High School, some people like me and some people hate me.
On Saturday morning, on the station platform, someone suddenly bumped into me and I nearly fell onto the tracks;
After school on Monday, I went into the shower room after swimming and nearly got electrocuted;
After school on Tuesday, a pot of geraniums fell from the third floor of the teaching building and hit me directly on the head;
A teacher was poisoned to death in my usual locker room after school on Thursday. Was he killed for me?
Suddenly I realized that I had no way to escape...
About the Author · · · · · ·
Keigo Higashino is a famous Japanese writer.
In 1985, he won the 31st Edogawa Ranpo Prize for After School and began to write full-time. In 1999, Secret won the 52nd Japan Mystery Writers Association Award and was shortlisted for the 120th Naoki Prize. Since then, White Night Walk, Secret Love, Letter, and Phantom Night have been shortlisted for the Naoki Prize four times. In 2006, The Devotion of Suspect X won the 134th Naoki Prize, the 6th Honkaku Mystery Novel Award, and the first place in the three major mystery novel rankings of the year, which was unprecedented.
Most of his early works were written delicately and meticulously. As his writing skills deepened, his writing style became more mature: the words were freshly polished, the narration was concise and fierce, the plot was ups and downs, and the story structure was almost incredible. In his masterpiece "The Devotion of Suspect X", both narrative and reasoning were perfect: the best tricks, impeccable reasoning, appropriate foreshadowing, and the most ordinary but most difficult to guess suspense, which received rave reviews from the award judges, media, and readers, and finally won the highest honor in Japanese literature.
