This would be my third book from the author and frankly, I find it more ingenious compared to the other two Kosuke Kindaichi series that I have read previously.\n\nEight Graves that nestled deep in the mountains was trembled with another series of deaths when Tatsuya, the heir of Yozo Tajimi arrives at the village to claim his mysterious inheritance. Years ago, Yozo has caused a massacre; a curse which said came from a legendary tale that has been haunting his hereditary after his ancestor, a ringleader attacked and killed eight samurai during the Sengoku period. \n\nTold in Tatsuya's perspective, it was dark and twisty whodunnit that bizarrely taunted me with its tricky puzzles. Bit draggy at few scenes but I still love how Tatsuya drives the narrative; he intricately mapping out the plotline to keep me enraptured with both his hunt and curiosity. The red herrings making me go baffled at times but I fancy the tension and suspense it builds that I don't mind when Kindaichi only appeared occasionally to help Tatsuya when he reached a blind turn.\n\nA secret underground cave with 3000 tael of gold, on resentment and hatred, a revelation of greed and pride, love and lust-- but people do say that history would repeated itself, and not without reason;\n\n\"My birth was entwined with a terrible, bloody tragedy. Maybe I did have some dark alter ego lurking inside me…\"\n\nLove the aftermath chapters and though I think it was an abrupt ending for the perpetrator, would still find the revelation as riveting and perfectly wrapped. 5 stars to this!\n\nThank you Pansing Distribution for this gifted copy!",5,"none","rv-01kr818y6y55sh3hg9cvnsnydk",[],"2026-05-10T04:10:37.000000Z",{"first":7,"last":7,"prev":7,"next":7},{"path":134,"per_page":135,"next_cursor":7,"prev_cursor":7,"has_more":20},"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fapi\u002Fworks\u002F01kr818w41k57sf1mrrnavts11\u002Freviews",20]
