Bookroo's summary

In Kamakura, a ghost at Nishi-Yuigahama Station offers a chance to revisit the day of a tragic train derailment. Drawn by the promise of seeing lost loved ones, a grieving woman, a young man, a teenage boy, and a conductor's widow face a haunting choice. Can they change the past, or will they be trapped in a cycle of loss? As they grapple with this eerie opportunity, the line between hope and despair blurs. Will they find closure or be consumed by the shadows of what once was?

From the publisher

At the beginning of spring, a train in Kamakura derails, causing numerous deaths. Two months later, rumors spread of a ghost at Nishi-Yuigahama Station with the power to send people back to the day of the terrible accident–on the very train that was doomed. The story attracts a woman who lost her fiancé in the disaster, a young man who lost his father, a teenage boy who lost his first love, and the late train conductor’s wife. An opportunity to see their deceased loved ones seems almost too good to be true. What will they do now that they have it?
