I'm not looking for paranormal stories where ghosts show up and the case is solved right away. I want something where they follow clues bit by bit to solve the case. It doesn't have to be too scary. Thank you, everyone!

The new book I just finished is a criminal investigation mystery with many twists and turns, no supernatural content, and it is exciting and brain-burning. In just one day, four people died. Behind the four serial murder cases are inextricably linked to three old cases 25 years ago. The major suspect turned out to be the elementary school teacher of the male captain of the task force and the childhood savior of the policewoman Hua.

This book! All I can say is that everyone who has seen it says it is a must-see for suspense fans! This book has a bit of a threshold. It is recommended not to read it without thinking~ Otherwise, you may miss information. It is full of brain-burning hardcore twists and turns~ I love it so much.
