ginpomelo 's review for:

All She Was Worth by Miyuki Miyabe
3.5
mysterious reflective sad slow-paced
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

This is in the "social malaise" school of Japanese mystery, although it is nowhere near as dark as Natsuo Kirino. You wouldn't think that credit card fees can be compelling as a plot device but it is.
