Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Victor Tanasa a dat nota:
The Borrowed masterfully blends the classic detective genre, focused on logical deductions and solving clues with the social genre, which reflects upon the state of a society (Hong Kong in this case). It achieves this with six reverse-chronology novellas (the first in 2013 and the last in 1967), each highlighting a crucial part of the city's history and a different case for Kwan Chun-dok, detective genius. The stories are very engaging and well thought out, the characters likable and the city of Hong Kong a fantastic setting - I've found myself googling a lot of the locations described in the book. Just awesome.
