The death of a hotel guest in a shabby seaside village comes to the attention of big city police when they learn that the dead man was a retired cop. Local police and a university professor also take interest. Was this murder or an accidental death? Is this linked to a past murder? What secrets are being hidden by the innkeeper’s family? This is one in a series of books featuring Japan’s Detective Galileo. Highly enjoyable. Kept me guessing. Will definitely read more from this author.

Read book 2 times through.

This book has great vocabulary and shared insights to the world about life as a minority. It displays a coming of age theme which revolves around Starr, the ferocious main character of this novel. I would definitely recommend!

Sosososo awesome. it held my attention the whole time through and had many unpredictable points. IT IS AWSOMESAUCE

Super good and really good for birdwatching.

good reader, great characters both primary and secondary

Disappointing ending, but I fear that was purposeful.

This book is really funny and silly!

Quite a bit is written from the perspective of someone who is a well-known musician & doesn't apply to normal jobs & lifestyles.

I really liked the book because it was nice to read in bed and it felt funny and relaxing at the same time! I really liked how PANDANIA gave each of them a family that sort of enhanced their personality.
