Yuya Hiiragi is a rising star in the acting world. Praised for his charisma and intensity, he lands the role of a lifetime—a serial killer. But as he dives deeper into the role, something inside begins to crack. Until one night… He finds himself with his hands around his girlfriend’s neck— not in a scene, but in real life. Tormented by violent impulses he never knew he had, Yuya begins losing his sense of self, his boundaries blurring between actor and character. After a rehearsal, he’s assaulted by thugs— and when he comes to, their blood is on his hands, and their bodies lie lifeless around him. “Let’s get out of here.” says his manager Kiryuu, coldly suggesting a cover-up. But truth has a habit of chasing shadows, and a sharp-eyed detective begins to unravel the disturbing truth. Can Yuya remain an “actor”? Or has the killer he played… become who he truly is?
