Leading true crime podcaster McSkyz presents the shocking real-life cases that have rocked Japan, peeling back the layers of a society often seen as safe and orderly.

In this gripping collection, McSkyz uncovers infamous crimes that reveal Japan's hidden undercurrents. From the notorious Lucie Blackman case to the chilling murder of a model by her own brother, these accounts expose a side of Japan rarely shown to the outside world.

This volume of eight harrowing tales takes you far beyond tourist cliches and neat generalizations. Step into the shadows, where the rising sun is preceded by darkness.
