A review by anothetbennet
The Earthquake Bird by Susanna Jones

4.0

This is one of the cases I saw the film first and was the main reason why I wanted to read the book.

It tells the story of Lucy Fly, an English girl living and working in Tokyo, accused of murder.

Throughout the novel the events prior to the crime take place along with the present time and the reader will discovered if indeed Lucy committed the crime or not.

It’s a compelling story of secrets, jealousy and obsession. Very fast paced, good to get you out of a reading slump or if you want a quick yet suspenseful read. I recommend everyone to see the movie, which in this case was far better because of the performances.
