'A BRILLIANT DEBUT' LOUISE DOUGHTY
Within the Tokyo underworld there is an industry which exists to break up marriages. It is known today as wakaresaseya - agents who, for a fee, can be hired by one spouse to seduce the other and provide grounds for divorce on favourable terms.

Inevitably, however, the truth resurfaces... with tragic consequences.
