the village of eight graves - s. yokomizo (1950; translated 2021)


WHOAAAAA.

agonizing development but:
  • plenty of bodies (💪)
  • nicely paced narrative (except for the agonizing bits)
  • and twist after twist after twist 

the best part is, the story continues for four additional chapters after we unmask the murderer, with new developments in every chapter. if this is not satisfying i don't know what is.

many thanks to B for introducing me to Kosuke Kindaichi.
