Another simple job (as claimed by Maria) with an odd coincidence for Nanao to be at the exact time and day with other few assassins who were also on the move for their own personal missions at the same Winton Palace Hotel. It tangled so twisty with full of wits narrative told in multiple POVs that were set in different floors and rooms at the hotel. From years ago political incident to one’s dark motivation in catching a prey, Nanao now stuck in between a sudden rescue mission and becoming a target as the hotel turned into a maze-like locked-room and making it too impossible for him to escape. \n\nLoved the characterization the most and how Isaka interlinked their narratives with an engaging backstory for each. I was hooked with both Blanket and Pillow’s chapters for their interactions and dynamics (they remind me much to Lemon and Tangerine from the Bullet Train) as well The Six with their bickerings yet tense POVs. Koko was wicked (give me any old lady with tough cunning character and I would definitely be a fan) and too bad that I did not get much of both Cola and Soda— that scene when Soda said to Nanao he would go to Room 2010 for the card and did not return; I was hopeful, frankly :’\u002F\u002F\n\nThe action parts moved fast and I liked how intricate both fights and murder scenes were crafted esp on their method of killing. Bit spooked with Yomogi’s chapters and his political mess but I liked how the revelation goes on his part. The tension lured me, too intense nearly the end and loved how Isaka ended the plot with that scene at the hotel restaurant after a year it happened. \n\nOne of my fav from the series now and I don’t think I have heard any news about book 5(?) but hopefully Isaka would continue writing about these assassins; honestly I still need more of Ladybird. \n\n“Ladybirds are good luck, they say. They fly toward the sun, taking the divine path to the goddess. That’s why they have seven dots on their back.” \n\nThank you Pansing Distribution for sending me a copy to review!","none","rv-01kr81n7b7vh82t0gjbpy2tdey",[],"2026-05-10T04:17:20.000000Z",{"first":7,"last":7,"prev":7,"next":7},{"path":147,"per_page":148,"next_cursor":7,"prev_cursor":7,"has_more":20},"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fapi\u002Fworks\u002F01kr81n5hzqv6y629etv9s88n4\u002Freviews",20]
