"[A] suspenseful psychological melodrama…filled with strange entwinings of chance and effect, free will and manipulation, the mundane and the bizarre.”

Wall Street Journal


A Literary Hub Pick of Best Crime Books of 2017

Finalist for the 2018 Edgar Award for Best Paperback Original Novel

A chilling Japanese psychological thriller and Edgar Award finalist about four women, forever connected by one horrible day in their childhood - fifteen years later, someone wants to make sure they never forget.

When they were girls, Sae, Maki, Akiko and Yuko were tricked into leaving their friend Emily with a mysterious stranger. Then the unthinkable occurred: Emily was found murdered hours later.

The four friends were never able to describe the stranger to the police; the killer's trail went cold. Asako, the bereaved mother, curses the surviving girls, vowing that they will be the ones to pay for her daughter's murder …

Like Confessions, Kanae Minato's award-winning, internationally bestselling debut, Penance is a dark tale of revenge and psychological drama that will leave readers breathless.
