Journey Under the Midnight Sun by Keigo Higashino

3.0

---

I’m struggling to rate this one. It was hard to put down, almost compulsively readable, but there was so much I just did not enjoy. It was darker and more gruesome than the other works I’d read from the author. The mystery was good and I felt I was invested in solving it myself. But a lot went on that I didn’t enjoy reading, which may have been the point; the scope was huge and Higashino provided many small mysteries that were connected as well, which I think added to the readability of the book. Finally, I was a fan of the detective, Sasagaki.
