A LibraryReads SelectionAcclaimed novelist Kunihiko Hidaka is brutally murdered the night before he's to relocate from Japan to Vancouver. His body is found in his locked office, within his locked house, by his wife and his best friend who both have rock-solid alibis. Police Detective Kyochiro Kaga recognizes the best friend. They were once teachers at the same public school. Then Osamu Nonoguchi became a full-time writer -- but not with the success of his friend Hidaka.
