Tara a Devlin

Kazoku Tara a Devlin

She won't stop until they're all dead.

Yotchan's only ever known one family; his brothers in arms. The yakuza. He'd die for them, and they'd die for him. But a job gone wrong might finally spell the end for all of them.

An innocent woman is dead, leaving her young son an orphan and throwing their well-laid plans into chaos. It's not long until those present at the scene of the crime start showing up dead, and Yotchan realises that the danger is far from over. A mother's vengeance knows no bounds, and this one is now striking at them from beyond the grave.

Can Yotchan and his brothers escape from her ghostly grasp, or will she drag them all down with her? And what will Yotchan's boss, the only father figure he's ever known, do when he realises that Yotchan has been lying to him all this time?

Click the buy button right now to step back into Rakucho's dark, seedy streets, and uncover the deadly truth that lurks in the shadows.
