A selection of deliciously spooky short stories from the Japanese
master of suspense, the acclaimed author of RING. The first story
in the collection has been filmed as DARK WATER. Suzuki
demonstrates the power of his psychological insight into the
mechanics of fear in this highly atmospheric collection of stories
unified by the theme of water. Following her divorce, Yoshimi
Matsubara lives with her five-year-old daughter Ikuko in a
depressing and damp apartment block on reclaimed land in Tokyo Bay.
But when a child's red bag keeps turning up in unexpected places,
Yoshino's sanity seems to be threatened, and she soon begins to
fear that her daughter's life is at risk. Kensuke Suehiro jumps at
the chance to visit a restricted island in Tokyo Bay, about which
he once heard a rather strange story. But when he arrives, he finds
far more than he bargained for. Fisherman Hiroyuki is embittered
and unhappy in his marriage. But getting rid of his wife turns out
to be anything but easy, especially when his own boat seems to be
against him. Family man Sugiyama finds himself trapped in an
underwater cave. Can he find a way to communicate with his beloved
son one last time? Just four examples from this beautifully crafted
collection of stories filled with suspense, tension and drama. A
perfect introduction to one of Japan's top literary stars.
