Description

Blurb
Each year, the Ushiromiya family gathers at the secluded mansion of its patriarch, the elderly Kinzo. It has been six years since Battler joined his cousins at the annual event, but their happy reunion is overshadowed by worsening weather and an eerie premonition from his youngest cousin-not to mention their parents’ feud over the inheritance. Battler doesn’t hold much stock in dark omens, nor does he believe the tales of the witch rumored to have given his grandfather a fortune in gold … and who walks the halls of the mansion to this day … But when the eighteen family members and servants are trapped on the island by the raging typhoon, the grisly events that follow leave Battler shaken to his core. Is one of his relatives desperate enough to kill for the family fortune? Or is this the work of the Golden Witch?
Kinzo, der Patriarch der Familie Ushiromiya, versammelt jährlich seine Erben zu einem Treffen auf dem Familiensitz auf der abgelegenen Insel Rokkenjima. Seit jeher wurde dieses Treffen von den Teilnehmern dazu verwendet, die Nebenbuhler um das enorme Familienvermögen vor dem Vater schlecht zu machen, um selbst in seiner Gunst zu steigen, was bei den untereinander befreundeten Enkeln von Kinzo nur Kopfschütteln auslöst.

Dieses Jahr entwickelt sich das Treffen jedoch zu einem Alptraum, denn während die Insel aufgrund eines Taifuns komplett von der Außenwelt abgeschnitten ist, beginnt eine mysteriöse Mordserie die Anzahl der Anwesenden immer weiter zu verringern. In dieser Atmosphäre der Bedrohung und Ungewissheit beginnt nun ein Kampf ums Überleben, infolgedessen das Vertrauen untereinander durch gegenseitige Verdächtigungen immer weiter zerstört wird.

    In this world, there is no truth. The truth is made later on and overwrites what comes before it. Real truth doesn't exist anywhere.
