520 In an abandoned building in 1973 in Osaka, the body of a
murdered man is found. Working quietly and methodically,
Detective Sagasaki discovers two people who appear to have
clear links to the crime -- Ryo, the uncommunicative son
of the dead man, and Yukiho, the charming daughter of the
man principally in the frame for the murder. Decades pass.
The murder remains unsolved. Ryo and Yukiho continue with
their lives, disappearing and reappearing through school,
jobs, and marriage. But Sagasaki, who carries
tenaciousness to the point of obsession, is prepared to
spend as much time as it takes to solve an insoluble case.
As the many strands of plot, coincidence, and rumor
dovetail, Sagasaki zeroes in on the curious bond
connecting Yukiho to Ryo. Journey under the Midnight Sun
isn't a whodunnit or even a whydunnit, but a what-exactly-
is-being-dunnit, and an extraordinary work of fiction that
could be read as a potted history of Japan, an exploration
of a crumbling social order, a ludic literary puzzle that
plays with genre expectations, and most of all, a
tantalising mystery that keeps the pages turning. --
