    Smart concept, but honestly it seemed completely juvenile to me. I can’t understand the hype. Maybe I’m just too old.

    It can be read in one day, if you’re a fast reader

    It was shockingly well written, without unnecessary parts, and I consider it to have a noteworthy writing style. The illustrations make it even more atmospheric.

    You have to be focused and keep track of the names, as it has quite a few characters and in the end the appearance of everyone makes sense, which makes it even more interesting.

    Every time a new chapter started, I was left speechless. It makes you not want to put it down. It is about 300 pages, with an easy-to-read font, so for fast readers especially, it takes no more than two days to read.

Description & Specifications

Shortlisted for the Skroutz Book Awards 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards.

A series of sketches made by a young pregnant woman before she died. A child’s drawing in which a gray smudge covers their home. The desperate drawings of a murder victim in their final moments.

Each is a chilling warning…

Each reveals a macabre secret, “hidden in plain sight”...

The ominous puzzles of the enigmatic Uketsu, Japan’s bestselling mystery writer, have captivated millions of readers around the world.

They wrote about the book:

"The most idiosyncratic and chilling mystery novel of the year! It proves that the genre is more imaginative and dynamic than ever." The Guardian

"The strange riddles of Uketsu are highly addictive: I couldn't put the book down." R. F. Kuang, author of Babel and Yellowface

"An reading experience as strange as it is unique, this masterfully macabre, brilliantly interactive mystery novel unfolds around nine strange images filled with keys." Waterstones Bookstore

"A labyrinthine and multi-layered horror novel... At every point in the narrative, new questions, twists, and revelations arise, keeping the suspense high until the very end." The New York Times
