Description
[Machine Translation] It was 1916, eleven years after the end of the Russo-Japanese War. In Russian-controlled Tokyo, an unidentified corpse is found. Shindo, a special officer in the Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division, teams up with Tawada, a sergeant in the Nishi-Kanda Police Station, to begin the investigation. Just then, however, they are intervened by the High Police, which reports directly to the police commissioner, and the Security Division of the Russian Federation's Central Directorate. They learn that behind the dead body lurks a conspiracy that could shake the nation. The author, who boasts of his unshakable popularity as a standard-bearer of police novels (he chose this stage to show his awareness of the problems in Japan today), says that this is an outstanding police novel with a historical alteration.
