dpai12 's review for:

The Devotion of Suspect X by Keigo Higashino
4.5
dark emotional mysterious reflective sad tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: N/A
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I'm very picky when it comes to mystery books. There are very few authors in this genre whose books I truly enjoy, and now Higashino will be one of them. 
The book is quite unconventional in its structuring, and the true mystery unravels when you least expect it. What I enjoyed the most was the psychological volleys played between the detectives and the suspect. It was a true nail-biter. Highly recommend this book to all mystery fans out there.
