Admittedly this is not one of Higashino’s finest works but it’s such an easy and clean read that I can’t criticise it so much.
I loved how all the individual parts of the story interlinked, everyone is connected in a way. And to be honest I wasn’t super interested in finding out who killed the victim, but rather how everyone’s stories pieced together.
Not his best work, though maybe that’s also the fault of the translator, but still a decent read!
