In 1985, Kazumasa Yuuki is a seasoned reporter at the North Kanto Times, running a daily gauntlet of the power struggles and office politics that plague its newsroom. But when an air disaster of unprecedented scale occurs on the paper's doorstep, its staff is united by an unimaginable horror and a once-in-a-lifetime scoop. Seventeen years later, Yuuki remembers the adrenaline-fueled, emotionally charged seven days that changed his and his colleagues' lives. He does so while making good on a promise he made that fateful week—and in this thriller by the author of the CWS International Dagger nominee Six Four, Yuuki must confront its last unsolved mystery and his own final, unconquered fear.
