A review by jeffrossbooks
The Name of the Game is a Kidnapping by Keigo Higashino

4.0

As far as Higashino goes, this is a light novel. Everything else I've read of his has a real depth to it. Character depth. Story depth. Not to say this is any less enjoyable. It is, in essence, a novella. And in thinking of it that way it clarifies the actual read.
It is also as clever as all of his novels, in that you can see what is going on, or at least think you do, and then your expectations are thrown sideways.
