Set in the scenic landscapes of Hokkaido, Japan, this mystery series centers on Sakurako Kujou, a brilliant and eccentric woman with an all-consuming passion for bones. Whether they belong to animals or humans, skeletal remains are her life's work and greatest fascination. Her remarkable expertise has earned her a reputation as a forensic consultant for the local police, making her an invaluable resource whenever cases involve unidentified remains or unexplained deaths. By her side is Shoutarou Tatewaki, a sharp-minded high school student who serves as both her companion and, more often than not, her keeper. While he possesses his own keen eye for detail, his most pressing duty is ensuring that Sakurako stays on task—and resists the temptation to pocket any particularly captivating specimens. Together, they navigate a world where the dead still have stories to tell.
