Blurb:

For the past five years, the rural town of Kashioka has been plagued by a series of disappearances. With no bodies or leads, the cases are inevitably closed and the victims long forgotten... Until a famous news reporter named Seiji Sakuragi goes insane at the former temple he called home. Rumors start to form and when a cult website known as Nirvana begins spreading a strange rumor calling the Sakuragi house haunted and the missing victims the perpetrators behind it. When a young boy named Takeshi Sakata disappears, 15-year-old Mayumi Kinoshita decides to find the truth of the sinister rumors and bring justice to the victims... even if it meant the cost of her own life.
