Killing for the Prosecution

Tokyo, late summer. Cicada drone. A fresh-faced prosecutor, Okino, is assigned to Mogami's violent crimes unit. The apparent suicide of a shady moneylender is quickly deemed a homicide. Mogami fixates on a suspect from decades prior, pushing Okino to skirt procedure. A procedural that goes hard.
