A review by thegulagula
Salvation of a Saint by Keigo Higashino

3.0

'It's the perfect crime.' So claimed Detective Galileo.

What kind of perfect crime did the criminal perform this time? Has Kusanagi grown fond of the suspect that impaired his detective judgement?

This is the second book from Keigo's detective series I read and another murder was committed. Assisting Detectives Kusanagi and Kishitani this time is a new female detective, Utsumi. Utsumi is an interesting addition, with entirely different views from Kusanagi, acting as a bridge between Kusanagi and Yukawa (who happened to be on a rift due to what I assumed the investigation in the previous book). The disagreement between their detective instincts and Yukawa's views were always entertaining to read.

Unfortunately a perfect crime involves delving into details about tap and water filters, which bored me for a few chapters. Other than that, it is Keigo Higashino's story telling that I'd recommend for readers of all age group.
