Keigo Higashino (東野 圭吾) is one of the most popular and biggest selling fiction authors in Japan—as well known as James Patterson, Dean Koontz or Tom Clancy are in the USA.

Born in Osaka, he started writing novels while still working as an engineer at Nippon Denso Co.　(presently DENSO). He won the Edogawa Rampo Prize, which is awarded annually to the finest mystery work, in 1985 for the novel Hōkago (After School) at age 27. Subsequently, he quit his job and started a career as a writer in Tokyo.

In 1999, he won the Mystery Writers of Japan Inc award for the novel Himitsu (The Secret), which was translated into English by Kerim Yasar and published by Vertical under the title of Naoko in 2004. In 2006, he won the 134th Naoki Prize for Yōgisha X no Kenshin. His novels had been nominated five times before winning with this novel.

The Devotion of Suspect X was the second highest selling book in all of Japan— fiction or nonfiction—the year it was published, with over 800,000 copies sold. It won the prestigious Naoki Prize for Best Novel— the Japanese equivalent of the National Book Award and the Man Booker Prize. Made into a motion picture in Japan, The Devotion of Suspect X spent 4 weeks at the top of the box office and was the third highest‐grossing film of the year.

Higashino’s novels have more movie and TV series adaptations than Tom Clancy or Robert Ludlum, and as many as Michael Crichton.

Đọc giải trí rất thú vị.

[Life · Rating 3 out of 5]

Elementary school students’ essays were interesting. They would frankly write things that adults could never imagine. A sharp eye and keen sensitivity were the children’s weapons.

The actual mysteries are a bit unimpressive, but I enjoyed the character interactions, which were quite amusing. However, despite the title, the ones investigating are a teacher and the police, who act more as detectives than the children ever do.

I particularly like this Higashino style of detective stories, with a fixed setting of primary school this time, and various murder cases that happened among a group of related people in the setting. Fun and quick read.

二十多年前的警察跟百姓都很辛苦吧！沒有了科學，一切都是那麼不容易。當然，也要有忍老師這種厲害的人。本書的案件(五篇)，以後見之明來看，似乎只要把一些應該很容易查證的事實查清楚就差不多了。例如，第一篇，自衛殺人的妻子到底是幾點下班。第五篇，受害者被害時，樓下住客是否真的在上班。其他三篇也是如此。而我在閱讀時竟然都沒想過這些問題。當然，不能怪作者故意忽略，只能怪自己腦袋不在線。受作者誘導的問題恐怕還是不小啊！

could be the translation issue. I like his other longer form mysteries, but this felt like just too many collection of episodes without much details or build up. light read.

短篇小说果然不如长篇啊……

很喜欢里面的角色塑造和描写手法，很生动。故事的谜底可能不是那么复杂，但是很喜欢这种短篇小说集
