   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.

   How does Kaga relate to Higashino?

   • Kaga meditates on that three-faced clock with an intensity that makes you draw parallels not only with Higashino’s elegant handling of time, but the novel’s social units, which are often divided into trios: one-child families, married couples with an elderly relative to care for, generations from grandparents to grandchild.
