وصف الناشر
In this international bestselling thriller, a former teacher delivers her final lesson to her students—including the two children that murdered her daughter.
After calling off her engagement in the wake of a tragic revelation, Yuko Moriguchi had nothing to live for except her only child, four-year-old child, Manami. Now, following an accident on the grounds of the middle school where she teaches, Yuko has given up and tendered her resignation.
But first she has one last lecture to deliver. She tells a story that upends everything her students ever thought they knew about two of their peers, and sets in motion a diabolical plot for revenge.
Narrated in alternating voices, with twists you'll never see coming, Confessions probes the limits of punishment, despair, and tragic love, culminating in a harrowing confrontation between teacher and student that will place the occupants of an entire school in danger. You'll never look at a classroom the same way again.

Page-turner
This book was a pleasant surprise and held my attention from start to finish. The writing is straightforward and the plot remains taut even after a gangbuster beginning that the cynic in me was sure the book could not maintain.
The kind of book you can read in one sitting
From start to finish, the plot engrosses you in the story. You grow to identify with some characters and hate others. You question morality and how static it truly is. Several engaging topics are explored from a mother’s delicate love turned to unstoppable vengeance, the argument of nature versus nurture when it comes to child killers, and what happens when the most satisfying ending isn’t the most moral ending. The book is beautifully written and the voices are distinct and intellectually unique. This is a fast paced, chilling, and satisfying read- a Japanese Noir if you will.

Started off kinda slow, but definitely was prepared for all the twists and turns. Really good book 10/10
