A Cop’s Eyes

A linked series of short stories about police detective Natsume whose human touch melts the hearts of recalcitrant suspects and jaded readers alike. Up and coming author Yakumaru’s most chiseled work to date, this work will mark his U.S. debut.

Nobuhito Natusme is an ex-officer at the juvenile detention center, who is newly transferred to the East Ikebukuro Police department. From a job that requires him to have faith in humanity, to a job that sees everyone as a suspect, Natsume patiently listens to all the people involved, diligently checking through their stories and from there dig up the truth to resolve the cases.
