The victim is identified as lawyer Kensuke Shiraishi, and Godai’s investigation quickly leads him to Tatsuro Kuraki—who astonishingly confesses not only to Shiraishi’s murder, but also to another killing committed thirty years prior, a crime for which a different man was previously arrested and died in custody before trial. While Kuraki’s confession neatly closes two cold cases, Detective Godai has a gut feeling that something is profoundly wrong: he simply doesn’t believe him. As Godai digs deeper, he finds he isn't alone in his skepticism. The son of the confessed murderer and the daughter of the murdered lawyer find themselves inexplicably bound together, unable to accept Kuraki’s story. As this unlikely trio edges closer to the truth, they discover that the bridge connecting the two murders is far murkier and more complex than they ever imagined—blurring the line between innocence and guilt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Benefits:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaster of Crime Fiction:\u003c\/b\u003e Written by Keigo Higashino, globally renowned author of international sensations like \u003ci\u003eThe Devotion of Suspect X\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMalice\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntricate Whodunit Puzzle:\u003c\/b\u003e Features Higashino's signature psychological depth, airtight plotting, and stunning narrative twists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eComplex Moral Themes:\u003c\/b\u003e Explores the gray areas of justice, false confessions, generational shadows, and the true meaning of guilt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAtmospheric Tokyo Setting:\u003c\/b\u003e Immerses the reader in the rich, meticulous details of Japanese police procedure and urban life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Perfect Gift:\u003c\/b\u003e An essential, suspenseful present for fans of psychological thrillers, Japanese translated literature, and clever detective mysteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BEETLE BOOK SHOP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52692078657819,"sku":null,"price":509.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/2150\/0699\/files\/812xE-_QztL._SL1500.jpg?v=1785311103","url":"https:\/\/beetlebookshop.com\/products\/guilt","provider":"Beetle Book Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
