About the author
Seichō Matsumoto
591 books638 followersSeicho Matsumoto (松本清張, Matsumoto Seichō), December 21, 1909 – August 4, 1992) was a Japanese writer.
Matsumoto's works created a new tradition of Japanese crime fiction. Dispensing with formulaic plot devices such as puzzles, Matsumoto incorporated elements of human psychology and ordinary life into his crime fiction. In particular, his works often reflect a wider social context and postwar nihilism that expanded the scope and further darkened the atmosphere of the genre. His exposé of corruption among police officials as well as criminals was a new addition to the field. The subject of investigation was not just the crime but also the society in which the crime was committed.
The self-educated Matsumoto did not see his first book in print until he was in his forties. He was a prolific author, he wrote until his death in 1992, producing in four decades more than 450 works. Matsumoto's mystery and detective fiction solidified his reputation as a writer at home and abroad. He wrote historical novels and nonfiction in addition to mystery/detective fiction.
He was awarded the Akutagawa Prize in 1952 and the Kikuchi Kan Prize in 1970, as well as the Mystery Writers of Japan Award in 1957. He chaired the president of Mystery Writers of Japan from 1963 to 1971.
Credited with popularizing the genre among readers in his country, Matsumoto became his nation's best-selling and highest earning author in the 1960s. His most acclaimed detective novels, including Ten to sen (1958; Points and Lines, 1970); Suna no utsuwa (1961; Inspector Imanishi Investigates, 1989) and Kiri no hata (1961; Pro Bono, 2012), have been translated into a number of languages, including English.
He collaborated with film director Yoshitarō Nomura on adaptations of eight of his novels to film, including Castle of Sand.

The characters aren't as fresh-up as I'd hoped, but the murder mystery is still great.
Edited@19/11/2017:
The story and the plot twists are nothing shocking but I really like the writing!

由一粒米饭、一只铝碗和两条狗串起的两桩杀人案，中间还涉及一场三角恋、一个死掉的目击者和一个死掉的真凶。而一切都源自嗅觉灵敏的警部（前文学青年）看到了文学杂志上的优秀文章节选。这个故事告诉我们：抄袭没有好下场（手动狗头）。

還不錯的一本書。作為一本上世紀的書，描繪出了女性的悲劇，並且人物塑造比較成功。但懸疑色彩不太夠，沒讓我覺得fascinated
