具体描述
Yasuko Hanaoka is a divorced, single mother who thought she had finally escaped her abusive ex-husband Togashi. When he shows up one day to extort money from her, threatening both her and her teenaged daughter Misato, the situation quickly escalates into violence and Togashi ends up dead on her apartment floor. Overhearing the commotion, Yasuko’s next door neighbor, middle-aged high school mathematics teacher Ishigami, offers his help, disposing not only of the body but plotting the cover-up step-by-step.
When the body turns up and is identified, Detective Kusanagi draws the case and Yasuko comes under suspicion. Kusanagi is unable to find any obvious holes in Yasuko’s manufactured alibi and yet is still sure that there’s something wrong. Kusanagi brings in Dr. Manabu Yukawa, a physicist and college friend who frequently consults with the police. Yukawa, known to the police by the nickname Professor Galileo, went to college with Ishigami. After meeting up with him again, Yukawa is convinced that Ishigami had something to do with the murder. What ensues is a high level battle of wits, as Ishigami tries to protect Yasuko by outmaneuvering and outthinking Yukawa, who faces his most clever and determined opponent yet.

##类型小说得有超越类型的内质，才当得起五颗星。读的第一本东野圭吾，也是2014年最后一本，在一年的最后一天，狂风怒吼。
##拖了好几天终于看完了，英文版的形容词很萌=▽=不过还是不满意那个“跟踪狂”的翻译啦【滚
##好

##17.04.24_你个傻逼。16.08.24当时中亚只要五十几，没买。现涨价，封面还不能忍，再等。2年前没找到kindle版，而今缘分到了。达摩石神终没像唐泽、新海那样，没能继续冷漠地活在方程里。我竟无法评价这结局。14.07.19日本推理综合症与英文症候群同时发作的征兆。
##这几天刚看完这本书的英文版，就惊闻苏有朋要把它拍成中国的电影版！真素泰可怕辣！希望东野先生看到时不会一口老血喷出来。早知道苏导演上一部拍可是主题为“薆怼ぅ訆薆情，薆錯ぅ訆鯖椿ヽ”的灾难青春片。
##没头脑和不高兴的故事 熬夜读完结果彻底失眠....
##英文翻译朴素直白，全程对话抓眼球。虽然八年前看过中文版，最后一小时听凶手同学解说，还是感动了一下下。东野圭吾总是让我想到某大学友人:)
我应该说过吧，大多数时候，“好人”这个词应该能和“傻逼”这个词互换。所以石神你真是个好人，副教授你真的不能算个好人。以及这本书的翻译质量比南海版赞！多！了！
