Description
A BARNES AND NOBLE BEST BOOK OF 2025 "Uketsu's strange riddles are chilling and addictive - I couldn't put it down." -R. F. Kuang, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Babel and Yellowface "Delightfully macabre and fiendishly clever. Seemingly unconnected stories tie themselves into a complicated knot, which Uketsu masterfully unravels."-G. T. Karber, author of the national bestseller Murdle "Wonderfully complex and carefully crafted . . . Uketsu keeps readers guessing until the very end." -New York Times Book Review The spine-tingling "triumphant international debut" (Publishers Weekly starred review) that has taken Japan by storm-an eerie and fiendishly clever Japanese puzzle mystery in which a series of seemingly innocent pictures draws you into a disturbing web of unsolved mysteries and shattered psyches. This psychological thriller is an exploration of the macabre, where the seemingly mundane takes on a terrifying significance. . . . A pregnant woman's sketches on a seemingly innocuous blog conceal a chilling warning. A child's picture of his home contains a dark secret message. A sketch made by a murder victim in his final moments leads an amateur sleuth down a rabbithole that will reveal a horrifying reality. Structured around these nine childlike drawings, each holding a disturbing clue, Uketsu invites readers to piece together the interconnected mysteries behind each and the over-arching backstory that connects them all. Strange Pictures is the internationally bestselling debut from mystery horror YouTube sensation Uketsu-an enigmatic masked figure who has become one of Japan's most talked about contemporary authors.- A great read for spooky-season nights- A perfect addition to any Halloween reading list Translated from the Japanese by Jim Rion. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
