On a stormy summer day the Aosawas, owners of a prominent local hospital, host a
large birthday party. The occasion turns into tragedy when 17 people die from
cyanide in their drinks. The only surviving links to what might have happened
are a cryptic verse that could be the killer's, and the physician's bewitching
blind daughter, Hisako, the only person spared injury. But the youth who emerges
as the prime suspect commits suicide that October, effectively sealing his guilt
while consigning his motives to mystery. The police are convinced that Hisako
had a role in the crime, as are many in the town, including the author of a
bestselling book about the murders written a decade after the incident, who was
herself a childhood friend of Hisako' and witness to the discovery of the
murders. The truth is revealed through a skilful juggling of testimony by
different voices: family members, witnesses and neighbours, police investigators
and of course the mesmerizing Hisako herself.
