| Summary | Renowned detective and master of disguise, Hōsui Rintarō, steps onto the stage of the opulent Shakespeare Memorial Theater, not as an investigator, but as Hamlet himself. His theatrical debut in *Hamlet's Concubine* is meant to be a triumph, but when the play's fictional drowning scene turns horrifyingly real—leaving Ophelia truly murdered on stage—the lines between performance and grim reality shatter. A mysterious tremor, a missing director, and a cast embroiled in bitter rivalries transform the stage into a crime scene. Hōsui must now unravel a complex web of illusions and betrayals, where the truth is as elusive as a ghost. |
