First in an all-new series of mysteries that could happen only in Tokyo...It's just another group suicide, thinks Tokyo Detective Kenji Nakamura - until he sees the Goth Lolita sprawled in the back seat of the late-model Lexus. Why would a doll-like eccentric dressed in black ruffles and Mary Janes choose to kill herself with a man and woman old enough to be her parents? The suicide note only adds to the mystery: it apologizes for an unnamed disaster that hasn't yet happened.The next morning, Kenji finds part-time English interpreter Yumi Hata camped in the police station lobby, insisting she has evidence her Gothic Lolita friend was murdered.The clock is ticking as they race to find the killer before the next victim is targeted...Includes more than two dozen photos of Japan!
