評価・遺産

A debut novel that won the 'This Mystery Is Amazing!' Grand Prize. Praised for precise depictions of information-security techniques and its entertaining heist suspense, the work is noted for its technical inventiveness; some reviewers also commented on the author's painstaking prose.

引用

  • Well done as a modern safe-cracking suspense, full of the fun of films like 'The Score' or 'The Italian Job' — however, the writing can be overly meticulous.
    出典: Nozomi Omori (book review) (2007年)
  • The array of security techniques is highly attractive, ideas are plentiful and never boring. The stylish prose also shines.
    出典: Norio Chaki (mystery critic) (2007年)
