Munku O Oe: Sakebi Dakkan Ni Kaketa Rondon Keishichō Bijutsu Tokusōhan No Hyakunichi

The story reads like a thriller, but I wonder how much was driven by the real events versus narrative choice. Did the author uncover some unexpected details that shaped the story?

The way the book weaves art facts with the crime kept me engaged, but I’m curious if others felt the same about the balance between history and suspense.

There are so many players—collectors, thieves, law enforcement—and I wonder how the author chose whose perspective to focus on for maximum impact.
