Seesaw Monster: A Novel

Summary

Miyako suspects her mother-in-law is a murderer. It’s not just a case of them rubbing each other the wrong way—there is definitely something suspicious going on. But Miyako isn’t exactly what she seems either. Her husband has no idea about her past life as a secret agent. When she decides to use her professional skills to investigate her mother-in-law, the delicate equilibrium of their lives is thrown wildly out of balance.

Mixing mythology, family drama, corruption, and espionage, this is a gripping novella from the international bestselling author of Bullet Train. Paired with a second novella, Spin Monster, it explores the idea of progress, the power of close relationships, and the nature of conflict with deadly stakes.
