A tightly sealed thriller from Japan’s acclaimed master of high-stakes genre writing, winner of an award for best detective. A psychological standoff between two people in a confined space.
Hiro and Aki decided to end their relationship and break up for good. They already moved all their things out of their apartment, but today it won’t be empty—they’ll spend their last night here. On the tatami, using a suitcase as a table, the young people will talk over food and drinks, reminiscing about the past. Especially one episode of it…
There is something that unites them even more than everything else in their lives: deep guilt, intensified by terrible suspicions. A tragedy happened once—someone died. And not just died, they both believe he was murdered. Each secretly suspects the other of the killing. On this final night, their main goal is to make the other one admit to the crime they committed.
