About the author

Fingerprint is a suspense and mystery author for whom little public information is available. Their work has drawn attention for its strongly cinematic storytelling and its socially minded approach to detective fiction. Three titles are available: Day and Night, The Salvation on the Blade (Expanded Edition), and Day and Night 2: Dawn Breaks. Day and Night became known to a wider readership through the television adaptation of the same name starring Pan Yueming and Wang Longzheng, with the novel and the series reflecting each other and creating a cross-media reach. Fingerprint's writing often begins with a case and, in the process of uncovering the truth, portrays the characters' circumstances and the gray areas of human nature, combining the tension of mystery fiction with the realistic concerns of social fiction. The works are categorized as suspense and mystery and as social fiction; their style tends to be cool and restrained, with tight pacing and attention to plot momentum and the gradual revelation of characters' inner lives. Because the author's biography has not been made public, this introduction is based only on the works and confirmed publication facts available, without speculation about their life.
