Many of his works have been adapted to the screen and TV dramas, among which the Detective Galileo series were box office hits and enjoyed pretty good ratings. In addition to fascinating stories, the protagonist is the key to the success of Detective Galileo. Focusing on the Detective Galileo series, this study tries to explore the image of detectives depicted by Higasino Keigo.
