Kasama Tsuneo is an immigration officer in Tokyo, whose job is to catch and evict illegal immigrants to the US, often his own countrymen. Beset by strange passions and emotional fits, Tsuneo's life rapidly disintegrates, a fate compounded by the mysterious woman's voice that is introduced midway into the novel.
