Description

Explore the shocking true crime stories that have rocked Japan, revealing the hidden complexities beneath a seemingly orderly society. In this gripping collection, true crime expert Mcskyz uncovers eight infamous cases that reveal a side of Japan rarely seen. From the notorious Lucie Blackman case to the chilling story of a model's tragic end at the hands of her own brother, these stories expose the darker undercurrents of a society often seen as safe and predictable. Among the cases explored are: A futon salesman who defrauds and murders seven people Masumi Hayashi, who poisons a family with arsenic-laced curry Three individuals who bring their disturbing fantasies to life on the Dark Web A bank robber who poisons twelve employees and then vanishes A shocking case of violence at a Tokyo elementary school Follow the investigation, uncover the psychology of the perpetrators, and learn about the trials that followed each crime. With detailed accounts and a deep dive into the justice system, this book provides a compelling, thought-provoking look at Japan's criminal underworld.
