What is known about Keigo Higashino? He worked as an engineer in a large corporation and, after fifteen years of painstaking writing, finally received well-deserved recognition. His books sell in millions of copies, and dozens of adaptations have been made based on them. It is now difficult to find a more popular writer in Japan. Each of his novels and story collections is an event: top spots in sales rankings, literary awards, high ratings from critics and ordinary readers, who call his works "smart books".
Detective Kusanagi works in the Tokyo police, and from time to time, he encounters inexplicable, sometimes even unbelievable crimes. But how to tie mysticism with a police investigation? Confused by what’s happening, Kusanagi turns to his friend—Dr. Yukawa, who is also known by the nickname "Galileo". Only his sharp mind can shed light on any incredible mystery and reveal its dark roots.
"Detective Galileo" is the first book in the eponymous series, where science and common sense provide simple explanations for complex, incredible events.
