After rigorously preparing for a qualifying exam, journalist Jake Adelstein is hired as the first American crime reporter for Japan's prestigious newspaper Meicho Shimbun, where he's quickly tasked with covering the case of a stab victim. As he works to get an "in" with local detectives, Jake soon finds himself in the middle of another horrific crime scene and becomes determined to connect the cases -- at whatever cost.

Kishi Kaisei

The high from Jake's first published piece quickly fades as he struggles to connect the two victims -- and learns that nothing comes for free.

Then, Jake witnesses a confrontation that changes everything.

I Want It That Way

Sometimes They Disappear

After his tip leads to a busted raid, Jake feels the weight of Katagiri's rejection -- but doubles down on his efforts to help Emi with a murder investigation.
