   Oct 9, 2015 · Journey Under the Midnight Sun is a dark, convoluted tale, marked by Higashino’s characteristic sleight of hand.

   Nov 24, 2014 · But in Higashino’s latest crime novel, Malice, he takes it a step further: the book is not merely a howdunit, but a whydunit. Professional rivals? Malice tells the story of three men: two professional rivals, one of whom murders the other, and the police detective who investigates the crime.

   Is Higashino a good crime novel?

   • Higashino does not follow the normal conventions of the genre. In his cult sensation novel, The Devotion of Suspect X — one of the best crime novels I’ve ever read — the reader knows who committed the crime from the outset, but not how it was carried out. His follow-up novel, Salvation of a Saint, presented a similar conundrum.

   What is newcomer by Keigo Higashino about?

   • “Newcomer” by Keigo Higashino is a compelling foray into the murder mystery genre, distinctively set against the backdrop of Tokyo’s Nihonbashi district.

   What is Higashino's strength?

   • Higashino’s strength is the way in which he tricks us into searching for a clue that’s sitting in plain sight the whole time. In Japanese, a language known for its indirectness, this is simple, and it’s no mean feat translating this into English without giving away too much.
