事件記者ソフィ　贖罪の逃亡 (文庫)

The story keeps shifting between emotional intimacy and high-stakes suspense. Was this a deliberate choice to heighten the stakes?

Their histories felt so integral to their motivations — did the author draw inspiration from real-life stories or events?

The atmosphere really added to the story’s mood. I wonder if the setting was based on a real place or purely fictional.
