Özet
THE NIGHTMARE NO PARENT COULD ENDURE.
THE CASE NO DETECTIVE COULD SOLVE.
THE TWIST NO READER COULD PREDICT.
For five days in January 1989, the parents of a seven-year-old Tokyo schoolgirl sat and listened to the demands of their daughter's kidnapper. They would never learn his identity. They would never see their daughter again.
For the fourteen years that followed, the Japanese public listened to the police's apologies. They would never forget the botched investigation that became known as 'Six Four'. They would never forgive the authorities their failure.
For one week in late 2002, the press officer attached to the police department in question confronted an anomaly in the case. He could never imagine what he would uncover. He would never have looked if he'd known what he would find.

Eleştirmen yorumları
Not only is Six Four an addictive read, it is an education about Japan, its police and its society, and simply one of the best crime novels I have ever read. (David Peace)
Poor Narrator choice

A very interesting book that explores many aspects of human nature, and the meaning of serving within an organization or a society that demands subservience to superiors and devalues individuality, topics that are expressed sometimes with great eloquence others with mixed success because of the demands of the story line.
The main character is bullied and ostracised in a manner that I think most western organizations would not tolerate, he is always conflicted with his duty and his personal needs and putting those needs in the background for the greater good, for a second we see him strive for a modicum of individuality but is soon stifled and put in his place.
The thriller part of the story is well developed and very interesting but stretched out for too long because of the existential angst of the main character.
A good police story with a clouded moral message that I think was lost in translation.
The reading is given in a monotone that is a bit disconcerting given all the passions in the story.
What we lost in translation is found in revenge.

If you could sum up Six Four in three words, what would they be?
It was hard at first to get all the characters names because they were Japanese.But the story was one not to put down. You wanted to know what was going to happen next. Being a true story and asking my Japanese Pen Friends it is really a big book and film. I would love to see the film too.Who was your favorite character and why?
I loved the detective who had been given a new roll as the Press Director. The character is great all the way through the book.Which scene did you most enjoy?
I enjoyed the ending but will not say what happens. But it is not what you expect.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes the problems the Press Director went through with father of the kidnapped daughter and the problems he had with his own daughter.Any additional comments?
It is hard work but worth the read. You will get into the characters and remember the names.Gripping Story right to the last pages
