Miki, bound by painful memories of the past, has given up on love and life, even at forty. Shunned by the villagers as a member of the "Dog God lineage," she has lived a quiet life making washi paper in a mountain village in Kochi. Then, like a gust of wind, Kyo, a young man, appears before Miki. When the two, who find the same loneliness in each other's hearts, are united, the tragedy of "blood" begins! The ominous Dog God begins to stir. Pitch-black darkness and nightmares assault the villagers. Based on the Dog God legends of Tosa, this masterpiece of fantasy horror depicts the fear that creeps into the depths of people's hearts with a delicate touch. Personally, I was more drawn in than with Shikoku. The inescapable curse of blood from the Dog God lineage, and the fate of being dominated by the dog and falling, despite not intending to. Life is such that hope comes rolling in just when you've finally given up. Most of the time, it ends in false joy, and you fall anyway. A truly heartbreaking story. #Masako Bando #Dog God #Horror #Horror Novel
