The funeral bell is ringing on the hilltop.
As the residents of the apartment complex held a funeral for a man named K,
A new resident, Mikaya, arrives. The room he will be living in is apparently K's former room.

Through conversations with the peculiar inhabitants, the truth behind the deaths unfolds.

Among Maki Kusumoto's works, this is her most aesthetically pleasing and gothic mystery novel.
