The sequel to the iconic intellectual puzzle "Tokyo Zodiac". A unique puzzle linking the 20th century with an ancient civilization. On a tiny island off the coast of Louisiana stands a strange 30-meter stone tower. On the seventh, its topmost floor on August 15, 1986 found dead a very famous man, a member of the richest clan in America. He... choked on sea water. Eyes that almost fell out of the orbits testified: at the moment of death, the deceased experienced a terrible fright. And the body remained in a pose as if he'd been swimming a crawl. The entrance to the tower was closed by a massive, tight-fitting safe door, locked from the inside. There was no other way anyone could have gotten into the deafening structure. Besides, several people had been watching the tower and the surrounding area continuously from morning until evening and had not noticed anything suspicious. Oh, and the weather was clear. There is no one in America who can solve the mystery of this impossible, supernatural death. But on the other side of the Pacific Ocean lives genius detective Kiyoshi Mitarai, able to find a clue in a few days ... "Nothing has ever puzzled the American police as much as this death in August 1986 and the unexplained location of the corpse ... And the day before, a strange creature with ears sticking out like a wolf, large round eyes and a mouth that cuts the cheeks from ear to ear was seen near the tower. The monster apparently emerged from the sea late at night." - Kazumi Ishioka "The God of Mystery" is what Soji Shimada is called in Japan.
