The criminal investigation detachment has a pair recognized as a "match made in heaven" - Su Lin is as cold as a knife and a profiling genius; Jiang Che is as gentle as water and is an expert in interrogation. The two partners have a 100% crime detection rate in three years and are known as the "double stars" in the police industry.
No one knows that Su Lin's inspiration for profiling comes from her ability to empathize with the souls of the deceased, while Jiang Che's interrogation confidence comes from his ability to listen to the murderer's heart. They tacitly complete the truth at the scene of every blood moon unsolved case, and work side by side to restrain each other from losing control late at night - she is the anchor that locks the evil thoughts in his ears, and he is the lamp that illuminates the dead soul in her eyes.
When a serial murder case connects the two people's pasts, they must protect their secrets while regaining the only light that belongs to them on the edge of trust and betrayal.
Reader comments
He could hear the murderer's heart, and she could see the soul of the deceased. This pair of "perfect partners" are not only looking for the real murderer in a series of murders, but also the only salvation in each other's darkness. With a unique dual-power setting, crime, science fiction and the bond of human nature are blended into one furnace - when the ginkgo totem is stained with blood and the ancient agreement awakens, they, as mortals, become the last starlight to illuminate the abyss.
The story is wonderful and the language is fluent. The more I read, the more I want to read.
The rhythm is really well controlled, and there is a degree of relaxation. It is suffocating when it should be tense, and full of laughter when it should be relaxed.
The story has a rigorous structure, with natural and smooth transitions, making it a smooth read.
This book opened a new window of knowledge for me, and it systematically refreshed my inherent understanding of the field of detective work.
