Summaries

The head of a psychological research institute and a lieutenant in the Japanese Air Force are both investigating a mysterious cult known only as 'Midori no Saru' (The Green Monkey).

Part of the mystery seems to involve a young child and an enormous Buddha statue outside Tokyo, but how could all these pieces possibly fit together?—Jean-Marc Rocher <[email protected]>
