Nicolás Obregón recommends
The Wrong Goodbye (2021)
Toshihiko Yahagi
"The Wrong Goodbye is a hard-boiled treasure, a Chandleresque elegy to a time of shady deals, femme fatales, and of course, murder. These are tropes with which mystery readers will undoubtedly be familiar. Yet this novel is also a beguiling peephole into a Japanese society that readers will perhaps not know so well; a world of US airbases, black markets, and corrupt ploys. While Toshihiko Yahagi may not be the heavyweight in the Anglophone world that he is in Japan, he very much deserves to be. Simply put, The Wrong Goodbye is a siren song of poetic noir."
The Day of the Accident (2018)
Nuala Ellwood
"A raw, shocking, and serpentine mystery that keeps you guessing until the very end."
