Following in her mother's footsteps, Nao became a traditional Japanese sweets maker. At twenty-one, she is about to take the industry by storm, with a bright attitude and real artistry. Then an offer to work at a world-class shop pulls her into something darker. The premise is a dramatic character story that mixes craftsmanship with unease.The strength is the atmosphere. The world of confectionery is vividly drawn, and the tension builds steadily. Nao's ambition and vulnerability make her an engaging lead, and the mystery keeps the pages turning.The weaknesses are about the darker themes. The story can be heavy, and a few reveals are easy to see coming. Readers wanting a light, cosy story may find it too bleak.Recommended for fans of dramatic, mystery-tinged character stories. Expect a serious read with plenty of tension.
