A few pages back I wrote about a Miyuki Miyabe novel. Two notes: First, I screwed up; Miyabe is a woman, not a man. Second, I just finished another of her novels, this one called "Shadow Family." Again, it is not at all like traditional western mysteries. I like this one because the story takes place on a single day, and most of it during a single interrogation. The primary "hook" of the book is a group of people who have formed an imaginary family on the internet.
It's not a page-turner like some American mysteries can be, but well worth a read.
I may try another of hers in future, but probably not right away - not because I don't like her style -- I do -- but it's the old "so many books, so little time..."
