Publisher's Summary
The third title in Japan's most popular murder mystery series - after The Honjin Murders and The Inugami Curse - fiendish classics featuring Investigator Kosuke Kindaichi.
Nestled deep in the mist-shrouded mountains, The Village of Eight Graves takes its name from a bloody legend. In the 16th century, eight samurais, who had taken refuge there along with a secret treasure, were murdered by the inhabitants, bringing a terrible curse down upon their village.
Centuries later, a mysterious young man named Tatsuya arrives in town, bringing a spate of deadly poisonings in his wake. The inimitably scruffy and brilliant Kosuke Kindaichi investigates.
What the critics say
"At once familiar and tantalisingly strange.... It's an absolute pleasure to see his work translated at last" (Sunday Times)
"The diabolically twisted plotting is top-notch." (New York Times)
