Death on Gokumon Island by Seishi Yokomizo
4.5
dark mysterious sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: N/A
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I love our detective Kosuke Kindaichi & I've been devoured all three other translated books in this series. I love them all & this one is no exception.

Now onto the plot; the first 1/4 before the first crime occurs is a bit slow & boring. But once the plot is gaining traction it's a fast ride. Full of confusing clues & red herrings. Although I figured out the culprit along the way, nothing had prepare me for the twist at the end. Overall, a good read and I am satisfied reader =)
