A classic Japanese murder mystery introducing detective Kosuke Kindaichi.
In the winter of 1937, a wedding brings excitement to the rural village of Okamura. But on the wedding night, a terrible scream and the haunting sound of a koto lead to a gruesome discovery: the bride and groom have been murdered.
The room appears sealed, and a bloodied sword lies in the snow outside. With few clues and seemingly no way for the killer to have escaped, the case presents an impossible puzzle.
Blending an intricate mystery with the customs and tensions of pre-war Japan, The Honjin Murders invites readers to unravel a crime in which every detail matters.
