Description
The lonely, rockbound island of Tsunojima is notorious as the site of a series of bloody unsolved murders. Some even say it’s haunted. One thing’s for sure: it’s the perfect destination for the K-University Mystery Club’s annual trip.
But when the first club member turns up dead, the remaining amateur sleuths realise they will need all of their murder-mystery expertise to get off the island alive.
As the party are picked off one by one, the survivors grow desperate and paranoid, turning on each other. Will anyone be able to untangle the murderer’s fiendish plan before it’s too late?

Absolutely amazing, I was hooked from the very beginning.
The first chapter was outstanding in setting the scene, introducing us to the characters and filled to the brim with minutiae detail that any mystery lover would eat up. Whilst subsequent chapters never quite managed to maintain that level, they were still undoubtedly excellent.
The only issue I had, hence the rating not being 5★, is the pacing being somewhat disjointed. Some chapters the pacing is fast and flowing, others chapters the pacing almost reaches a crawl. However that never detered me from enjoying what has become one of my favourite books since starting my reading journey.
