The Plotters by Un-su Kim
2.75
dark mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Lots of action and murder but not a lot of reason too it. The summary says the book is about the main male protagonist and a group of three interesting women, but the women are only mentioned more than half way through the book…one of them only gets a few lines of dialogue and no motivations as well…

Main character reminds me of the mc from Murakami’s “Hard Boiled Wonderland” (a classic male grunt in a nice suit working for a big organization who is assumed to be highly skilled at his job)
