A mystery wrapped in a puzzle surrounded by red he

In the third of JC Kang's novellas we are introduced to a new PoV to join Jie and Tian. Yuna, the prolific eight-year-old initiate assassin adds her energetic voice to the mix.

This one centres around a plot to kill a triad boss, but there's a few mysteries that need solving along the way. Like who is the triad boss? Why is there an assassin targeting people in the slums? And why is every male character in the trench a pedophile? OK, that last one is a bit of hyperbole, but there are a lot of suggestions toward it. With this novella, far more than the last two, the author definitely sets up the world as a shitty place to live.

The core mystery around the story was compelling and Yuna's voice was refreshingly optimistic after Jie's cynicism and Tian's naivety. There's a good few twists thrown into the mix, and it serves to keep the pace careening onward. Unfortunately with another voice in play, we get even less of our main character Jie, and her character development suffers for it a bit. At times, she just kind of there, along for the ride.

An excellent addition to the series of novellas, and a nice addition to the overall story being told.
