    "Kaname Otonashi is gifted with a super-hearing ability, so much so that he can even hear voices from the "other side"...the dead. Having once worked as a top notch detective specializing in Sound Engineering Investigation, Otonashi resigned to work as a private investigator. His partner, Yasuhide, aka Hide, collaborates with the police department to take on unsolved and mysterious cases. Surrounded by a string of mysterious deaths, the police turn to Kaname's findings to identify suspects...but can Kaname handle the non-stop screaming of the dead?"

    "Part police procedural, part supernatural thriller, Otodama: Voice from the Dead tells the story of Kaname Otanashi, a smoldering hottie with a direct line to the other side. For several years, Kaname and his partner Yasuhide Nagatsuma, both members of the Tokyo Police Department, exploited this gift to solve crimes — that is, until a disastrous, and as yet unexplained, case compelled them to quit the force. The two continue to assist the police, however, as Hide’s identical twin brother Yasuhiro is a high-ranking officer with an impressive clearance rate."
