Suspenseful mystery novels, set against the backdrop of contemporary society, focus on human nature and extreme crimes. Their worldview is built upon the interplay of reality and fiction, using extreme crimes as a prism to reflect the abyss (and brilliance) of human nature. They combine the entertainment value of suspense with metaphorical commentary on real-world issues.
After reading this, I can't blame the author for focusing on the dark side of society, which is very eye-catching and quite sensitive. The book lists a lot of data, which hasn't been verified, so it should be real, indicating that the author did a lot of research. It's clear that the author wanted to write a thought-provoking story.
It's so real, so realistic. It's precisely because it's so realistic that it's easy for readers to empathize and feel that life isn't worth living. This book focuses more on the emotional descriptions between people in the case. The case itself is not very complicated, but the human nature is very complicated and bizarre.
Just finished reading it, it was really good, with very meaningful cases. I originally thought I only liked those kinds of intricate crime-solving stories where the culprit is unexpected, but after reading this novel, I think it's really well-written. Each case is meaningful, and the author's writing style is excellent 😳 I hope they release a second book soon, because I feel like other crime novels aren't satisfying me anymore.
Excellent! I really enjoy this type of novel. This is the third one I've read that I couldn't stop reading. The author's writing is solid, the concept is good, the plot is tight, and the language is sometimes powerful and sometimes delicate and warm, insightful and thought-provoking.
Darkness, absolute darkness! The dark side of society is laid bare. It's not an infinite flow story, not a system, not invincible; every victim deserves to die, and every perpetrator is simultaneously a victim. I haven't read anything like this in a long time—the kind of suffocating feeling that leaves you feeling choked up, yet also like being scratched by cat claws if you don't read it! This book deserves to be seen by more people!
The plot is novel, arousing the reader's desire to uncover the truth and reflecting social realities.
I highly recommend this book. The writing style is very modern, and the cases are carefully selected, representative, and based on real events. There's no deliberate concealment or alteration; instead, it provides a more authentic reflection of a generation's society. I support this kind of work. But I hope justice won't always be delayed.
It's pretty good, kind of like Ten Deadly Sins.
It's great! I love watching it! So much so!
