Summer of Ubume

Kyogokudo, a used book dealer and hereditary onmyouji occultist, is drawn into a bizarre case by his friend Sekiguchi. A woman has been pregnant for twenty months. The investigation falls to detective Enokizu, who possesses the rare ability to see people's memories. Hired by the pregnant woman's sister to find her missing husband, they unravel a web of family secrets rooted in wartime trauma. The deeper they dig, the more a legendary child-stealing spirit, the Ubume, seems to manifest. Only Kyogokudo's esoteric arts can confront the ancient curse haunting the household.
