| Summary | "In Osaka, dark secrets haunt a wealthy merchant family throughout the first half of the 20th century ... In 1906, the young heir to the Omari family business climbs to the top of a Panorama and vanishes. In 1914, a fight between two mysterious figures on a bridge tragically ends with one falling to their death. In 1943, as war rages on, the once illustrious family has fallen. Both potential heirs have been drafted into war, and a string of strange and violent happenings has beset the house of Omari."-- |
