Description:

Kumo no hitomi - a grim, cleverly plotted revenge story.

When a man loses his daughter in a brutal attack, the father connects with a man, a mathematician, clear-minded enough to help him have his revenge. But murder would be too easy; and that's where the cold, calculated tale takes unusual turns.

Nijima is a white-collar worker who one day finds the man responsible for his young daughter’s brutal rape and murder. He tortures and interrogates the man, who maintains his innocence, before killing and burying him. He returns to his ordinary life feeling listless and hollow, until he meets an old high school friend who introduces him to his hapless band of hired killers.

Nijima's skill in the assassination business catches the attention of a bigger crime boss, and soon he's assigned to investigate his friend, which ultimately results in a bloody confrontation.”
