{"product_id":"six-four-a-novel","title":"Six Four: A Novel","description":"International Bestseller • One of New York Times Book Review's 100 Notable Books of the Year\n\nWinner of the Best Japanese Crime Fiction of the Year Award\n\nAn Award-Winning Phenomenon in Its Native Japan and Already a Critically Celebrated Top-Ten Bestseller in the United Kingdom, Hideo Yokoyama’s Six Four is an Unforgettable Novel by a Literary Master at the Top of His Form.\n\nFor five days, the parents of a seven-year-old Japanese schoolgirl sat and listened to the demands of their daughter’s kidnapper. They would never learn his identity. And they would never see their daughter alive again.\n\nFourteen years later, the mystery remains unsolved. The police department’s press officer―Yoshinobu Mikami, a former detective who was involved in the original case and who is now himself the father of a missing daughter―is forced to revisit the botched investigation. The stigma of the case known as “Six Four” has never faded; the police’s failure remains a profound source of shame and an unending collective responsibility.\n\nMikami does not aspire to solve the crime. He has worked in the department for his entire career, and while he has his own ambitions and loyalties, he is hoping simply to reach out to the victim’s family and to help finally put the notorious case to rest. But when he spots an anomaly in the files, he uncovers secrets he never could have imagined. He would never have even looked if he’d known what he would find.\n\n“Already a bestseller in Japan and the United Kingdom, this cinematic crime novel suffused with fascinating cultural details follows a police department reinvestigating a chilling kidnapping that stumped them fourteen years earlier.” ―Entertainment Weekly's The Must List\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1250160006\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1250160006.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Yokoyama, Hideo|Lloyd-Davies, Jonathan\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
