"Mr. Murakami's novels are filled with entertaining psychopaths."
-- The New York Times A pulsating cult-favorite psycho-thriller,
the basis of the major motion picture starring Christopher Abbott
and Mia Wasikowska *One of Literary Hub's "Ten Works of Literary
Horror You Should Read (Even if You Don't Think You Like Horror)"*
Kawashima Masayuki is a successful graphic designer living in Tokyo
with his loving wife, Yoko, and their baby girl. Outwardly, their
lives are a picture of happiness and contentment, but every night
while his wife sleeps Kawashima creeds from him bed and watches
over the baby's crib with an ice pick in his hand and an almost
visceral desire to use it. One night, as this struggle unfolds once
more, Kawashima makes a decision to confront his demons and sets
into motion an uncontrollable chain of events seeming to lead
inexorably to murder. The follow-up to In the Miso Soup from a cult
favorite writer, Piercing confirms Murakami as the master of the
psycho thriller-terrifying, sickening, and utterly gripping
