These guys have no idea how vigilant this mom is. She just swooped into McDonalds, nabbed this guy’s key while he was ordering and left it on the table, made a copy of the key at a nearby store, then came back to McDonald’s, handed the manager the key saying someone must have dropped it, and the guy gets his key back without knowing it was copied.

This book reminds me of Minato Kanae’s novel Confessions so far. If something happens to this woman’s child, all hell is going to break loose.

So excited to finally read this book! It was recommended by a friend who reads novels in Japanese too. First chapter introduces Honami, a woman who would do anything to protect her “miracle” child. There’s a bizarre murder that happens in a neighborhood nearby with a young child victim. Seeing this on the news really shakes up Honami. We’ll see where it goes from here…
