Review Quotes:
"Think of the artfully precise, psychologically charged films of Henri-Georges Clouzot and Alfred Hitchcock, and you're close to what Higashino achieves in Salvation of a Saint. It's the sort of book you'll want to finish in a single night." --Richmond Times-Dispatch
"To dispute a common complaint: They are indeed writing confounding puzzle mysteries the way they used to. They just happen to be writing them in Japanese. And by "they," I mean Keigo Higashino, whose elegant whodunits... are feats of classic ratiocination." --New York Times Book Review "One of the most clever endings I've read in some time.... The nexus of reason and emotion is why The Devotion of Suspect X's denouement packs such a potent punch." --The Los Angeles Times
