This edition, translated by Louise Heal Kawai, introduces readers to Kosuke Kindaichi, Japan's most famous detective. Set in the winter of 1937 in the village of Okamura, the plot revolves around a sinister masked man seen lurking around the village prior to a gruesome murder on the night of the Ichiyanagi wedding. The crime scene reveals only a bloodied samurai sword in the pristine snow, making for a nearly impossible crime to solve.
