Mountaineer Shiga made a promise to his best friend following his tragic death in the Himalayas. Twelve years later and he is called upon to honor that promise. But if the Mountains are unforgiving, then the City is treacherous! So, when Shiga comes down from his Mountain refuge to look for his friend's missing daughter Megumi, all he finds is trouble! Twice Eisner-nominated Taniguchi builds the tension to a massive climax in this exciting drama.
