IntroductionTanaka Yukino, age 30. She was sentenced to death for the crime of setting fire to her ex-lover’s house, killing his wife and one-year-old twins. What was behind the heinous act? The truth is so sad, and the media reports so delusional, that it emerges from the recollections of people involved in her life, including her obstetrician, sister-in-law, best friend from junior high school, and a friend of her ex-lover. A lawyer who has known her since childhood scrambles to get a retrial, but she is not able to get one. …… This is a long mystery of lamentations that depicts the inexpressible loneliness of this case.

Brief Thoughts:
The story progresses from the perspective of the people involved with her. It was a work that hit me with a concentration that I couldn’t take my eyes off of her, a person whose life’s struggles are seen not from one aspect but from multiple angles by multiple people.
