"Imprisoned without explanation for a decade, Goto is a free man at last, but what price freedom? Now, his mysterious jailer, a former schoolmate with a lifelong grudge, has Goto embroiled in a malicious game to discover the reasons behind the schoolyard vendetta and why his tormentor would go to such extreme lengths to exact his retribution. It's bad enough when Goto discovers that his memories have been impeded by hypnotic conditioning, but when he learns that his lover, too, is a victim of hypnotic manipulation, Goto begins to suspect that she may be an unwitting pawn in his enemy's venomous endgame!"--Publisher's website.

"Ten years locked away in a private prison with only a TV set and a jailer's voice for company-but why? What had Goto done to deserve this unexplained forced isolation, and why was he unceremoniously released, again without given reason? Could this decade of torment really be about a schoolyard grudge? Is an adolescent vendetta worth the millions of yen required to imprison a man for a decade? And is allowing the brutal Goto the opportunity to pursue his revenge just another opportunity to watch him twist on a hook?"--Publisher's website.
