"The Eyes of Dying" Author: [Japanese] Higashino Keigo

◆Published at the same time as "The Secret", this is a cold and cruel black version of "The Secret". What those people want to hide is not a secret, but a sin.

◆This is an important work created when Keigo Higashino's personal style and creative ability were maturing, and it solidly expanded his personal style.

◆Suspicion and desire are intertwined, malice and guilt are entangled, and even dark brushstrokes create a treacherous and unpredictable cocktail of human nature.

◆Brain-burning plot, round characters, and movie-like wonderful narration, starring Haruma Miura in the original 2019 Japanese drama of the same name.

◆The ultimate question: When one person takes the life of another, what is the fair way to hold the person accountable?

◆Hit the reality directly: The "small society" woven with the pen of flesh and blood is also the most real and concrete society.
