Book Reviews of Shadow Family
Book Review: An ingeniouly clever mystery
Summary: 5 Stars
Miyuki Miyabe's "shadow Family" is an ingeniously clever police procedural. Unlike "All She was Worth" another mystery by Miyabe which I thoroughly enjoyed, the novel was less Japanese and more universal. I liked both the concept given the enormous increase in computer chat sites and the manner in which the characters were developed. It was a difficult book to put down and I rhought that the ending was satisfying.
