'The Japanese Agatha Christie' Sara Cox, on BBC2's Between the Covers
A classic Japanese mystery from the author of The Honjin Murders and Murder at the Black Cat Cafe
A tycoon’s twisted will leads to a family feud and a string of bloody murders.
In 1940s Japan, the wealthy head of the Inugami Clan dies, and his family eagerly await the reading of the will. But no sooner are its strange details revealed than a series of bizarre, gruesome murders begins.
Detective Kindaichi must unravel the clan’s terrible secrets of forbidden liaisons, monstrous cruelty, and hidden identities to find the murderer and lift the curse wreaking its bloody revenge on the Inugamis.
The Inugami Curse is a fiendish, intricately plotted classic mystery from a giant of Japanese crime writing, starring the legendary detective Kosuke Kindaichi.
