SynopsisWhen Kiriko Yanagida first came to Otsuka's law offices, she had only a familial conviction of her brother's innocence despite his confessing to the murder. To the high-profile (and high priced) lawyer Otsuka, this small-town girl's belief was nothing more than naive hope, so he sent her away, advising her to find a local lawyer or something. Now, Kiriko plots to avenge her brother -- entirely pro bono ., When Kiriko Yanagida first came to Ginzo Otsuka's law offices, she was convinced of her brother's innocence despite his confessing to a murder. Otsuka sent her away. Young news reporter Tetsuro Abe gets wind of this story and is keen to help Kiriko, but she refuses to talk to him. Then, when Kiriko's brother dies, lawyer Otsuka's guilty conscience is stoked and he decides to research the case. These three individuals are about to become inextricably connected to a murder trial against Masao Yanagida - a man who is already dead.
