[Synopsis]

Keigo Higashino's breakthrough masterpiece, which won the 31st Edogawa Rampo Prize. In a girls' high school, math teacher Maeshima survives one assassination attempt after another, only for the school's head of student counseling to be brutally poisoned to death in the locker room soon after. As Maeshima cooperates with the police investigation, he gradually uncovers the schoolgirls' inner worlds hidden behind the seemingly peaceful campus—worlds that are incredibly delicate and pure, yet resolute and ruthless.
