About this listen

An elegantly plotted detective mystery that unwinds one of the most astonishing literary puzzles ever written, from the master of mystery hailed as "Japan's Agatha Christie" (The Sunday Times)

"An irresistible Hitchcockian gem: a fiendishly plotted crime novel told in crisp, elegant prose." —Paula Hawkins, author of
The Girl on the Train

In a rocky cove in the bay of Hakata, the bodies of a young and beautiful couple are discovered. Standing on the cold beach, the police see nothing to investigate: the flush of the couple's cheeks and the empty juice bottle speak clearly of cyanide, of a lovers' suicide. But in the eyes of two men, Torigai Justaro, a senior detective, and Kiichi Mihara, a young gun from Tokyo, something is not quite right. Together, they begin to pick at the knot of a unique and calculated crime.

Now widely available in English for the first time, Tokyo Express is celebrated around the world as Seicho Matsumoto's masterpiece.
