幻夜 下
一九九五年一月十七日清晨，阪神大地震。宛如人間煉獄的斷垣殘壁中，水原雅也為自保犯下殺人罪行，卻被一名女子當場目擊。女子自稱新海美冬，雙親亦於這場震災中罹難，舉目無親的她願意為雅也守住殺人的祕密，兩人約定拋卻家鄉的一切前往東京展開新生活。然而前方等著雅也的，卻是一個個形同幻影的夜晚。
美冬憑藉其美貌、肉體與手腕魅惑男性，一步步構築她的上流夢想帝國；而途中所有的阻礙，都交由雅也暗中協助處理。雅也深愛美冬，但他的生活卻從此見不得陽光。美冬的白天正是雅也的黑夜，連繫兩人世界的，唯有一樁又一樁依照美冬指示的冷酷罪行。
刑警加藤亘嗅出這數起案件的連結——凡是碰觸美冬的過去的人，都逐一從世上消失；而另一方面，雅也愈愛美冬，就愈想知道她的過去。加藤與雅也兩人都決心查出這名女子的真實身分……
她，到底是誰？

Keigo Higashino (東野 圭吾) is one of the most popular and biggest selling fiction authors in Japan—as well known as James Patterson, Dean Koontz or Tom Clancy are in the USA.
Born in Osaka, he started writing novels while still working as an engineer at Nippon Denso Co. (presently DENSO). He won the Edogawa Rampo Prize, which is awarded annually to the finest mystery work, in 1985 for the novel Hōkago (After School) at age 27. Subsequently, he quit his job and started a career as a writer in Tokyo.
In 1999, he won the Mystery Writers of Japan Inc award for the novel Himitsu (The Secret), which was translated into English by Kerim Yasar and published by Vertical under the title of Naoko in 2004. In 2006, he won the 134th Naoki Prize for Yōgisha X no Kenshin. His novels had been nominated five times before winning with this novel.
The Devotion of Suspect X was the second highest selling book in all of Japan— fiction or nonfiction—the year it was published, with over 800,000 copies sold. It won the prestigious Naoki Prize for Best Novel— the Japanese equivalent of the National Book Award and the Man Booker Prize. Made into a motion picture in Japan, The Devotion of Suspect X spent 4 weeks at the top of the box office and was the third highest‐grossing film of the year.
Higashino’s novels have more movie and TV series adaptations than Tom Clancy or Robert Ludlum, and as many as Michael Crichton.
