Summary	Rotaro Shirafuji seeks quiet recovery in a sanatorium, a world apart from the vibrant, bustling summer of K—Town. But his peace is shattered by a shocking, inexplicable murder on the crowded beach: a beautiful girl, stabbed in plain sight, yet with no assailant visible. As a second, equally baffling crime occurs, Rotaro finds himself drawn into a sinister mystery, his suspicions centering on Jusuke Yamaka, a cunning man from his past. Delving into the impossible logic of these murders, Rotaro uncovers a hidden world of dark secrets beneath K—Town’s glittering façade, where innocence is exploited and life is cheap. He must expose the calculating killer before the darkness claims more victims.
