"The undisputed best masterpiece among Higashino's works in the last 10 years" _ Akiyuki Sengai (critic)
Keigo Higashino's 101st work, back to the origins of mystery!
"When asked, 'What kind of novel is a mystery?',
this is the kind of novel you can answer with, 'It's like this.'" _ Keigo Higashino
Japan's best-selling author Keigo Higashino's latest full-length novel, 'You Killed Someone,' has been published by Vookda. The work is a masterpiece that fully demonstrates the charm of the 'golden age mystery' as the author, a master of the genre literature world, returns to the origins of mystery novels for his 101st work, and has received rave reviews from critics and readers alike. The new work, which is also the twelfth work in the Detective Kaga series, the essence of Higashino Keigo's mystery that has continued for a long 38 years since "Graduation" was published in 1986, has proven the popularity of the series that does not change over time by taking the top spot in mystery sales in Japanese bookstores immediately upon its publication in 2023.
"You Killed Someone" begins with a party of five families on summer vacation at a luxurious villa. However, that night, five people are murdered and one is injured, and the survivors hold a verification meeting to reveal the truth of the tragedy. Detective Kaga Kyoichiro, who was on a long vacation, attends the event, and he begins to uncover the secrets that each person has been hiding.
The work very elaborately implements the essential elements of an interesting full-fledged mystery. The clever foreshadowing that makes you stick out your tongue and read it again after learning the truth, the series of twists that give another answer just when you think you know, and the shocking ending that no one can predict. The author said about the background of the concept of this exciting mystery novel guided by detective Kaga Kyoichiro who has returned after 10 years, “It is a work that follows the lineage of ‘Someone Killed Her’ and ‘I Killed Him’ which are considered to have strong authentic elements even in the series.” He also confidently introduced the new work by saying, “When asked, ‘What kind of novel is a mystery novel?’, this is a work that you can answer with ‘This is the kind of novel it is.’”
