In the tranquil town of Nara, amidst the ancient temples and serene gardens, a sinister force lurks, threatening to shatter the peace. When a prominent merchant is found brutally murdered, Detective Ennin, a skilled and intuitive investigator, is called upon to unravel the complex web of secrets and deceit that surrounds the crime.
As Ennin delves into the investigation, he encounters a cast of enigmatic characters, each with their own motives and hidden agendas. There's the enigmatic widow, whose grief seems too calculated; the ambitious apprentice, driven by a hunger for power; and the enigmatic monk, whose connection to the victim remains shrouded in mystery.
With each step closer to the truth, Ennin uncovers a labyrinth of historical intrigue and cultural heritage. The murder appears to be connected to the ancient practice of "selling spring," a ritualistic exchange of gifts and favors that has long been a part of Japanese society. As Ennin digs deeper, he realizes that the killer's motives extend beyond personal gain, reaching into the very fabric of Japan's past.
