This month our book is Tokyo Express by Seich Matsumoto

In a rocky cove at Hakata Bay, the bodies of a young and beautiful couple are discovered.

Standing on the cold beach, the police see nothing to investigate: The flush of the couple's cheeks and the empty juice bottle speak clearly of cyanide, of a lovers' suicide. But in the eyes of two men, senior detective Torigai Jutaro and Kiichi Mihara, a young gun from Tokyo, something is not quite right.

Together, they begin to pick at the knot of a unique and calculated crime.

From "Japan's Agatha Christie" (The Sunday Times): A secluded bay. An apparent lovers' suicide. And a pair of detectives with a nagging suspicion that the pieces don't add up. Can you solve one of the most astonishing literary puzzles ever written?

"An irresistible Hitchcockian gem: a fiendishly plotted crime novel told in crisp, elegant prose."--Paula Hawkins, author of The Girl on the Train
