The Lost Souls Meet Under a Full Moon

Brimming with suspense and heartbreak, the million-copy Japanese magical realist mystery for fans of BEFORE THE COFFEE GETS COLD and LONELY CASTLE IN THE MIRROR

______________

I bring together the living and the departed. I am the Go-Between.

When Hirase, a young woman from Tokyo, arranges an appointment with the Go-Between, she doesn't expect a teenager to show up. Dressed preppy-style in a duffel coat and carrying a notebook, he invites the dead back into the real world - at least, this is what Hirase has pieced together from his website page.

Ushered into a luxury hotel to await her meeting, the Go-Between lays down the ground-rules: the reunion lasts one evening under a full moon; the dead person cannot be called back by anyone else, and may refuse to meet.

Four more characters will go to a reunion:

- a woman struggling with low self-worth finds the TV star who once helped her

- an elder son, regretful of his greed, sees his deceased mother

- a young woman reunites with the rival whose death she deliberately caused

- a weary salary man meets to solve the mystery of his missing girlfriend

-

With each gripping story, clues are scattered like gems for the reader to piece together.
