In Riku Onda's The Aosawa Murders (German: Die Aosawa-Morde ), truth is not a destination but a shifting landscape. Set in 1970s Japan, the novel centers on a birthday celebration for the prominent Aosawa family that ends in a "scene from hell" when 17 people die from cyanide-laced drinks. The only family member to emerge unscathed is their beautiful, blind daughter, Hisako. A Mosaic of Memory
