Part of the The Summer Hikaru Died series
A boy returns from the mountains, but is he really who he seems?
Yoshiki's best friend, Hikaru, vanished into a mysterious light, only to return changed. Now, Hikaru's face and voice are the same, but something dangerous lurks beneath. As Yoshiki grapples with the unsettling transformation, he must decide if the bond they shared can survive—or if Hikaru is truly gone. Can Yoshiki uncover the truth before it's too late?
It has Hikaru’s face. It has Hikaru’s voice. It even has Hikaru’s memories. But whatever came down from the mountains six months ago isn’t Yoshiki’s best friend. Whatever it is, it’s dangerous. Carrying on at school and hanging out as if nothing has changed–as if Hikaru isn’t gone–would be crazy…but when it looks so very like Hikaru…and acts so very like Hikaru…
