I admit that I only picked up this novel because of the author and artist, but I am very glad that I did! It was a super intriguing and engaging story about life in general, and how different people on vastly different paths all interact with one another. The characters were incredibly diverse and each one was flawed in a unique, realistic way. The overarching plot - who killed character X - was brilliantly interlaced with "current day" interviews of the other characters, each of whom ended up in different parts of the world, doing their own things. The ending was believable and satisfactory and the artwork, as usual, was incredible!
