Under the midnight sun / Keigo Higashino ; translated by Alexander O. Smith with Joseph Reeder.
In Osaka, Japan, in 1973, the body of a murdered man, the owner of a pawnshop, is found in an abandoned building. The person who last saw him alive, a single mother with a shadowy connection to the victim, has an alibi for the time of the murder. Assigned to investigate the crime, Detective Sasagaki hits a dead end, unable to identify and charge the killer. Over the next twenty years, through the lens of a succession of characters, <i>Under the Midnight Sun</i> is the story of the people most affected by the crime: Ryo, the son of the victim; Yukiho, the daughter of the main suspect; and the obsessed detective, Sasagaki, who never stopped investigating the murder, determined to uncover the elusive truth.
