There was a really nice unravelling element to the story, like a snowball getting bigger and bigger until it reached the bottom of the mountain. Ayane is a really interesting character, and I liked her a lot. I also liked how Kusanagi was affected heavily by her and how that impeded his judgement but also aided the investigation.
Detective Galileo is, as always, a joy to read. A fascinating character that I have never disliked once.
While it’s not groundbreaking, it is a solid novel. Well written, well translated, well paced, and well plotted.
