A collection of four novellas: each taking place in 1998, each set in the world of SIX FOUR, and each centring around a mystery and the unfortunate officer tasked with solving it.
Season of Shadows
"The force could lose face . . . I want you to fix this." Personnel'
s Futawatari receives a horrifying memo forcing him to investigate the behaviour of a legendary detective with unfinished business.
Cry of the Earth
"It'
s too easy to kill a man with a rumour." Shinto of Internal Affairs receives an anonymous tipoff alleging a Station Chief is visiting the red-light district - a warning he soon learns is a red herring.
Black Lines
"It was supposed to be her special day." Section Chief Nanao, responsible for the force'
s 49 female officers, is alarmed to learn her star pupil has not reported for duty, and is believed to be missing.
Briefcase
"We need to know what he'
s going to ask." On the eve of a routine debate, Political Liaison Tsuge learns a wronged politician is preparing his revenge. He must now quickly dig up dirt to silence him.
Prefecture D continues Hideo Yokoyama'
s exploration of the themes of obsession, saving face, office politics and inter-departmental conflicts. Placing everyday characters between a rock and a hard place and then dialling up the pressure, he blends and balances the very Japanese with the very accessible, to spectacular effect.
