Another suspenseful yet heartbreaking tale by Higashino. The story basically proceeds as a How-Done-It-Murder-Mystery. While the story doesn't progress in a twisty, breath-taking thriller, the book is engrossing enough thanks to Higashino's densely woven writing, intelligent investigation, and some wonderful characters. But the twist at the end, which the whole story builds up to, is both surprising and emotional. The author then takes the story to another level of emotion, and concludes with a heartbreaking ending. Keigo Higashino became one of my favorite authors.
