I bow down to Higashino's brilliance. He is the person to turn to for impossibility intricate plot, fleshed out characters and villains and murderers you will root for so badly your moral compass would pass outside of orbit. 

I need a bit more reflection about the book but I have noticed a tendency in both the books I have read by the author. Women and Love seems to be prime motive. I want to see if it continues in next two books. 

Author makes an obvious and painful way of portraying his work as feminist or not sexist but no man. Don't stop. You are good in every other aspect of murder mysteries don't ruin it.
