Officer Kurumi Reporting. Finally, my fiancé and I are taking a well-deserved vacation to the Blood Pond Spa to clear our heads--a little time to ourselves in the mountains. But psychopaths never want to take a holiday from me. Shingo and I arrive at the spa, where we run into a group of writers who, innocuously enough, are here for an awards ceremony. When one of the scribes suddenly turns up as Best Dead Novelist, everyone else is...well, everyone else is a suspect.Later, a murder threat is sent into the Metropolitan Police Department. The instructions are Go to the Ghost Building at midnight on November 10, and someone will die. I'll give you one guess who Inspector Himuro orders to be the lucky volunteer...
