A coming-of-age novel about two half-brothers, Hasi and Kiku, whose subconscious is inscribed with the fear of being on the threshold of death for about thirty hours. It does not allow them to accept the surrounding reality, they cling to an illusory world. They try to cope with psychological trauma, but it does not always work out. Hasi becomes a famous singer, but his psyche cannot withstand the tests of fame, love, playing another person. He remains an "unnecessary" guy and brings himself to a mental disorder.

Kiku could have made a career as an athlete, but this was not his dream. He dreams of causing an apocalypse in Tokyo, and in the end he succeeds. Revenge for the sake of revenge is realized. The atmosphere of hopelessness and despair haunts the heroes, but throughout the story you sympathize with them and wish that they cope, and not drown in the wilds of madness and cruelty.

The white cat Michi is the mascot of the series. Together with you, he will set off on a book journey through the countries of Asia: from enchanting Japan to mysterious Taiwan. Michi will be waiting for you on the pages of the book. Together with him, you will share the impressions of what you have read. As a souvenir of the journey, Michi will give you a collectible bookmark.
