Daisan no otoko. (Tankobon Hardcover)

The city’s atmosphere plays such a crucial role in the story’s mood. I wonder if Greene drew from real events or places to craft this backdrop.

The characters’ loyalties and motives are so complex that I kept questioning who was truly trustworthy. Was this Greene’s intention to reflect post-war chaos?

The suspenseful tone and sound effects added so much to the atmosphere. I’m curious if others felt it enhanced or distracted from the mystery.
