This is a good old fashioned detective story where women were “dames” and were “notin but trouble”. The language is fun and the central character is the grounding influence here as everyone else in the story is either crazy or a killer…..and one is both.

This translated book from Japanese was very interesting. A boy of high school age who works in his family’s bookstore has just lost his grandfather who he lived with. He shuts himself away in the bookstore until a strange visitor comes into the shop. I liked the different writing this book presented as well as the way it presents a different way of looking a books.

At its heart, this is a police procedural. But the characters are so well explored within this context and the circumstances so bizarre, that the story, though bloody and twisted, is very interesting. If you like cop drama, you will definitely enjoy this one.

Excellent book. I almost put it down after a few pages, but I persevered and am glad I did. Very well written, interesting novel. Expats from Jamaica in England whose lives intersect and secrets are unraveled as the book progresses. Twists and turns I did not see coming. Looking forward to the next book by this author.

I loved this book—captivating, emotional, and beautifully written. The characters felt real, and the story kept me hooked. The ending left me heartbroken, though. We don’t always get the happy ending we want or deserve, and this book is a powerful reminder of that.
