Since Keigo Higashino, the world of suspense has known no true pinnacle. That is, until The Confessor Beneath Paris burst onto the scene. It doesn't follow trends; it sets the rules. It doesn't write mysteries; it reshapes the abyss of human nature. While others write suspense, it writes destiny. While others chase classics, it is a classic in its own right. From then on, the suspense genre would be divided into two eras: before The Confessor Beneath Paris, and after The Confessor Beneath Paris. This is no novel. It is a new creation myth in the history of suspense fiction.
