Summary

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Unknown Male by Nicolás Obregón.  

Tokyo. 2020.  

As Japan prepares to host the Olympic Games an English exchange student is found bludgeoned to death in a love hotel. She lies in an empty room with only a dead spider for morbid company. Could this be a calling card from her killer?   

The world's eyes are on Tokyo's Homicide department, who are so desperate that the Commissioner picks up the phone and calls his old protégé, Kosuke Iwata. A brilliant detective whose haunted personal life has forced him into exile thousands of miles away.   

Iwata wants no part in an investigation that means stepping back into a past he had no intention of revisiting. Until he is is given an offer he can't refuse.  

Unknown Male is a novel of lies, power and secrets. As Iwata attempts to uncover a city's darkest secrets he encounters old ghosts and new whispering from its hidden corners.

As an avid reader, an awful experience .....

I started reading out of curiosity, & found it to be one of those books where you keep going thinking it must get better, more interesting, but it only seemed to ‘develop’ the main character’s dark, warped mind, & draw the reader into his murderous/evil world. I found his actions, reasonings, & apparent ‘glee’ at his cruel abilities to subject another to pain & destruction on every level, ...... absolutely sickening!!!
To the author - I did try to continue reading your ‘creation’ .. but..
have to ask .. “ where on earth did such depravity come from”?? I didn’t finish the book, but as an avid reader all my 70+yrs life - I ALWAYS finish a book regardless of its effects, but this was too much!
We have a responsibility to ourselves to screen what we put into our minds, & I chose to stop listening. As Anthony Horowitz described it - it is a dark brutal ride.... too brutal for me. ... & The Times said .. “Not for the faint hearted” ..... beyond evil.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
