The Name of the Game is a Kidnapping
Keigo Higashino, Jan Mitsuko Cash (translation)Battle-tested project leader at a PR firm
& slippery bachelor, Sakuma sees himself as a player. His smug self-regard doesn’t seem entirely unfounded, both in love & at work. When is idea for a mini-theme park is dismissed as too costly & vacuous at the last minute by a major client he seems to have met his match.
Katsuragi, an heir and executive at the global car maker, Nissei Auto, is back from a marketing stint in the US with an authentic conviction that everything is a game. Once the man’s daughter by a
former mistress teams up with Sakuma so she can come into her inheritance in an expeditious manner—Juri is indeed her father’s flesh & blood—the game is good to go!
And the name of this game is a kidnapping!

Keigo Higashino was born in the lowest of lowly ghettos in Osaka, to poor parents, in a tiny house that in his words was “always one room short.” He lived off hand-me-downs, & from girls at that. Always lonely, he took to reading massive amounts of fiction—anything he could get his hands on.
An engineer by training, he became a full-time writer when his After School won the Edogawa Rampo Prize in 1985. His stateside debut came when Naoko was translated and published by Vertical, Inc. in 2004. Mr. Higashino’s fame in North America has only grown since. The Secret, the film adaptation of Naoko, was remade with David Duchovny, while The Devotion of Suspect X (from Minotaur Books) was nominated for the Mystery Writers of America’s Edgar Award in 2012. The Name of the Game is a Kidnapping, which spawned a theatrical feature called g@me., is the author’s second work to be brought over by Vertical.
