I think the fact that I wasn’t a big fan of detective Kaga in the previous one made me enjoy this book way better. I went in thinking it would just be like the first book in this series and I wouldn’t really connect with Kaga again but it was the complete opposite. I really enjoyed him in this book. It was probably because he is the ‘newcomer’ here and so we can kind of get settled in along with him. 

I loved the multiple pov’s thing because it definitely made the gradual unfolding of the murder case enticing and confusing at the same time. I didn’t even suspect the real murderer at any point in time while reading and that made reading this much more enjoyable. This book was however slightly different to the author’s other books that I’ve read. We usually go in connecting more with the suspect/murderer and even occasionally wishing they don’t get caught but it’s not like that at all in this book. Now I really have to check the audiobook out too.
