i can't pinpoint what i love about this but i think it's how all these small details add to a bigger picture and how it was utilized in solving a murder mystery. just very satisfying.

“But my job as a detective should go beyond that. People who have been traumatized by a crime are victims, too. Finding ways too comfort them is also a part of my job.“
Tau meme damkar yang di Upin & Ipin itu nggak? Ya kira-kira begitulah gambaran Detektif Kaga di buku ini wkwk, semua masalah keluarga disikat😭👍🏻
I could say this is more like a slice of life—the lovely neighbourhood, the thoughtful detective, some heartwarming story—ah, I would love to read this book for the first time again. How all these small details add to a bigger picture and how it was utilized in solving a murder mystery. Just very satisfying.

I'm a huge Keigo Higashino fan ever since I read Malice and I've devoured every English translation of his books.
If you have never read Higashino before, don't except fast-paced thrillers and insane twists because what this writer offers is the mundane. His mysteries are neither shocking nor over-the-top, they are in fact, so ordinary that at the end of the book you wonder 'why didn't I think of it?'
But that's what makes Higashino different. His ability to extract something extraordinary from an ordinary situation.
Newcomer's differences lies in the fact that each chapter can be a short story in itself. Each chapter about different characters, whose stories entwine because of one murder investigation. This is definitely not Higashino's strongest book but nevertheless I enjoyed the structure and style immensely.
If you love reading something very different from the usual thrillers, give him a try.
