There is a gathering of the group running the world's government. Enemies from the past try to interfere. The detective and her friends come out of retirement to save the day once again.

Its was a little bit since I last a novel in this series. So I didn't remember all of the events leading up to this. The plot seemed overly complicated with several plans within plans. It was a alright story.

Heck, I really hate the "Great Time Skip" LOL

But still it's a very enjoyable read and really looking forward to what's in store with the new twists revealed!

It seems like there is some missing continuity the two years where volume 5 left off. What about Arsene Lupin and removing the seed remnants from Suesta? Was that part of the great crisis? However this series jumps around quite a bit so maybe answers will come later. Volume 6 does tie in with some references to the Akashic records and Danny Bryan the previous great detective.
