The debut novel of Keigo Higashino, 'Audubon no Inori' (Shinchosha Bunko), originally published in hardcover in December 2000, is now available in a limited-edition cover version. Following last year's release of special cover editions of 'Golden Slumber,' 'White Rabbit,' and 'Captain Thunderbolt' (a collaboration between Kazushige Abe and Keigo Higashino), this legendary debut work has also received a limited cover release. Last year, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Keigo Higashino's literary debut, limited cover editions of 'Golden Slumber,' 'White Rabbit,' and 'Captain Thunderbolt' (a collaboration between Kazushige Abe and Keigo Higashino) were released to great acclaim. Due to popular demand, the second wave—now the fourth title—'Audubon no Inori' has been released in a limited cover edition. It is currently available nationwide as part of the "Shinchosha Bunko's 100 Titles" lineup. 'Golden Slumber,' 'White Rabbit,' 'Captain Thunderbolt' limited covers (released late November 2025) Available as part of "Shinchosha Bunko's 100 Titles" As with the previous edition, the cover artwork is an original illustration by artist Taku Sakai. Pay close attention to the illustration featuring the scarecrow, an iconic symbol of 'Audubon no Inori.' The cover uses art paper with foil stamping, resulting in a high-quality, premium finish. This special edition will naturally draw in not only longtime fans of Higashino's works but also first-time readers into the unique world of the story. The limited cover is designed as a "double cover," with the special cover wrapped over the original (priced the same as the standard edition). In early August, a limited cover edition of 'Rash Life,' published two years after 'Audubon no Inori,' is also scheduled for release. Please look forward to it. ■ Book Description After failing a convenience store robbery and fleeing, Ito wakes up on an unfamiliar island.
