I'm a fan of Obregon's work, having read other books in the series. This book has two seemingly unconnected stories running parallel; the murder of an English exchange student and the grisly murders of sex workers. Obregon's writing is beautiful and he really brings Tokyo to life. This book is worth reading for the sheer pleasure of the prose alone. This is a very dark book and chilling. As Iwata investigates, he finds himself sinking deeper and deeper into Tokyo's dark core.
