Japan’s most famous mystery series comes to life with dynamic black-and-white illustrations in this manga adaptation of Yukito Ayatsuji’s first Bizarre House Mystery—perfect for fans of Utesku’s Strange Pictures!
A landmark puzzle mystery waiting to be solved. Ayatsuji’s bestselling Japanese crime novel is transformed into a gripping manga edition through Hiro Kiyohara’s stunning illustrations.
The lonely, rockbound island of Tsunojima is notorious as the site of a series of bloody unsolved murders. Some even say it’s haunted. One thing’s for sure: it’s the perfect destination for the K-University Mystery Club’s annual trip. Armed with details of the murder and keys to the property, they set out to dig deeper. The bizarre house they find themselves in has 10 rooms arranged in the shape of a perfect decagon. But they are walking into a trap, one consisting of 10 equal sides and interior angles. And they will be sentenced.
This is the first in a 5-volume manga series set to grip fans of Japanese crime and thrilling horror-mystery manga series like Case Closed and Bungo Stray Dogs! Now available for the first time in print in English, these editions feature elegant black-and-white illustrations that bring the brilliant detective Shimada Kiyoshi and other characters vividly to life like never before. They are the perfect gift for both longtime Ayatsuji fans and new readers looking for an ingeniously twisty, locked room mystery that encourages them to make their own deductions.
