Publisher's Summary
In the wee hours of a 1960s Tokyo morning, a dead body is found under the rails of a train, and the victim's face
is so badly damaged that police have a hard time figuring out the victim’s identity. Only two clues surface: an
old man, overheard talking in a distinctive accent to a young man, and the word “kameda.” Inspector Imanishi
leaves his beloved bonsai and his haiku and goes off to investigate—and runs up against a blank wall. Months
pass in fruitless questioning, in following up leads, until the case is closed, unsolved.
But Imanishi is dissatisfied, and a series of coincidences lead him back to the case. Why did a young woman
scatter pieces of white paper out of the window of a train? Why did a bar girl leave for home right after Imanishi
spoke to her? Why did an actor, on the verge of telling Imanishi something important, drop dead of a heart
attack? What can a group of nouveau young artists possibly have to do with the murder of a quiet and “saintly”
provincial old ex-policemen? Inspector Imanishi investigates.
