Noriko and Juri are passionately in love when a murder weighs on them as if mocking their relationship. Written with a clear, lyrical touch, this mystery follows the love between the two young women while pursuing the sinister will behind the crime.

A murder beside the young women's love exposes the darkness hidden within an apparently quiet relationship.
