Description
In the Nihonbashi district of Tokyo an unusual statue of a Japanese mythic beast-a kirin-stands guard over the district from the classic Nihonbashi bridge. In the evening, a man who appears to be very drunk staggers onto the bridge and collapses right under the statue of the winged beast. The patrolman who sees this scene unfold, goes to rouse the man, only to discover that the man was not passed out, he was dead; that he was not drunk, he was stabbed in the chest. However, where he died was not where the crime was committed-the key to solving the crime is to find out where he was attacked and why he made such a super human effort to carry himself to the Nihonbashi Bridge. That same night, a young man named Yashima is injured in a car accident while attempting to flee from the police. Found on him is the wallet of the murdered man. Tokyo Police Detective Kyoichiro Kaga is assigned to the team investigating the murder-and must bring his skills to bear to uncover what actually happened that night on the Nihonbashi bridge. What, if any, connection is there between the murdered man and Yashima, the young man caught with his wallet? Kaga's investigation takes him down dark roads and into the unknown past to uncover what really happened and why.

September 26, 2022
In Higashino’s disappointing third mystery featuring Insp. Kyoichiro Kaga (after 2018’s Newcomer), Kaga helps his homicide detective cousin, a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police, investigate the murder of Takeaki Aoyagi, a supervisor at Kanseki Metals, who was knifed in an underground passageway before staggering onto a nearby bridge and dying. The subsequent discovery of Aoyagi’s wallet on the person of Fuyuki Yashima, a former Kanseki Metals employee, makes Yashima the logical suspect, with theft his apparent motive. This find, however, came only after Yashima, spotted by a cop hiding in a park, was hit by a truck when he fled into the street and was left in a coma. Kaga’s digging suggests that Yashima may be innocent, despite the circumstantial evidence against him, and that the killer targeted Aoyagi for reasons other than theft. Higashino does his usual fine job of imbuing even walk-on characters with depth, but this entry, unlike his best work, lacks the logical and fair surprises that are his trademarks, and will prompt few to gasp in astonishment at the final reveals. Higashino falls short of his own high standards.

- content: The third book in the Detective Kyoichiro Kaga series is a compelling police procedural full of twists that will keep listeners hooked. A man is found murdered in the Nihonbashi district of Tokyo. Another man is injured while attempting to flee and is in possession of the murdered man's wallet. Case closed? Not so fast. There's much more going on than meets the eye. Narrator P.J. Ochlan portrays Kaga as driven and compassionate, and his pacing perfectly matches the building plot. Ochlan also paints a picture of the geographic area and culture that enhances the story as Kaga works to discover the truth about the murder. This installment references Detective Kaga's past but can still be enjoyed as a stand-alone story. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine
