A fascination with murder at the edge of the investigation

In a town marked by serial killings, Morino and a schoolmate investigate brutal murders with a purpose that sets them apart: understanding the killers, not stopping them. Their willingness to put themselves in danger makes that distinction central to the book’s premise. This Haikasoru edition also includes the bonus novelette “Morino’s Souvenir Photo,” identified in the publisher description as previously untranslated.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers of horror fiction centered on serial murder.
  • For readers interested in investigations driven by curiosity about perpetrators rather than a stated aim to stop them.
