The Brush of Her Hand. Book 2

She came to the legendary detective Kiyoshi Mitarai – this strange woman named Kayo Ninomiya. However, he has long been away from home, traveling through different countries. She was received by the detective's friend, writer Kazumi Ishioka. There could be... no more insane request from the woman: Ishioka must go with her to a remote wilderness to find there the buried… brush of her own hand. At the same time, both of her hands are intact. Surprised at himself, the writer agrees. And so they are in a mysterious mountain village at the peculiar and gloomy Ryugatei hotel. But they will have to postpone their case: an impossible murder occurs at the hotel. In a locked, well-visible room with tightly shut panoramic windows all around, a woman performing music on a traditional Japanese instrument – koto – dies from a gunshot to the head. And at that moment, the room is engulfed in flames… This mystery is just right for Mitarai. But he is not in Japan, and he can only be contacted in writing…
