The three horse racing mysteries by Futari Okajima definitely belong to my favourite mystery novels.
Book review: 『焦茶色のパステル』by Futari Okajima
I’m really loving Futari Okajima’s horse racing mysteries, 焦茶色のパステル is as good as あした天気にしておくれ, and I recommend both!
Book review: 『99%の誘拐』by Futari Okajima
The two topics of this novel, kidnapping and computer science, did not manage to trigger my interest, and though the book was good overall, it was not for me.
Book review: 『あした天気にしておくれ』by Futari Okajima
An excellent mystery novel about horse racing. Even though it is not a topic I’m particularly interested in, I was completely engrossed in the novel from beginning to end.
Book review: 『解決まではあと6人』by Futari Okajima
I found the concept of the book really good (6 detectives investigate a part of the case and only the reader gets the whole picture), but it somehow failed to completely trigger my interest.
Book review:『チョコレートゲーム』by Futari Okajima
チョコレートゲーム is an engrossing mystery with a fast pace. Recommended!
