This is the first part of the trilogy, but I read the second one (Bullet Train) first, and as far as I can judge it doesn't matter. It was fun to discover all the little hints and tips Isaka hides in this story. Also, you actually start liking murderers while reading this. At least I did. How twisted! Of course Isaka manages to do this. It's a bit slower than BT, but this story slowly crept into my heart and I got invested more and more.

My week of reading:
Read 9 books this week. A lot of graphic novels. Standout reads this week are the tagged book: a story of three assassins who all witness someone being murdered. Definitely a page turner, but surprisingly dark & gloomy at times. Looking forward to the extra reading time at the end of the week/long weekend.

Suzuki lived a regular life as a math teacher, until his wife was killed. Now seeking vengeance, Suzuki joins the gang responsible for his wife's death. Suzuki pursues the Pusher, who he believes killed his wife's murderer. However, 2 other deadly assassins are on the hunt for the Pusher as well. As their paths cross, Suzuki fights to seek his revenge. If you like thriller books with high stakes, you'll enjoy this one.

leila.tapang A theme present in this book is revenge, as we see Suzuki push his limits to avenge his wife's death. 1y
