Translated into English for the first time.

Nestled deep in the mountains of Japan, the hamlet of Eight Graves takes its name from a centuries-old massacre. Ever since that bloody day, people say, a terrible curse has hung over the village.

When young Tatsuya arrives from the city to claim a mysterious inheritance, death follows close behind. After a series of gruesome poisonings, the villagers’ suspicion quickly falls on the newcomer. With the help of the famous Kosuke Kindaichi, Tatsuya must race to uncover the murderer and save his own life before the inhabitants of Eight Graves take justice into their own hands.

The Village of Eight Graves is an eerie classic murder mystery from the author of The Honjin Murders.

作者简介

横沟正史（1902-1981）

日本重要的推理小说家，代表作《金田一探案集》是能抗衡《福尔摩斯探案集》的推理小说典范。

作品以传统的本格推理为主，表面氛围奇诡，但完全摒弃了风行一时的非现实情节，以纯粹的写实手法将推理小说的各种典型要素浓缩在创作中，同时融入日本社会特有的人情风俗，将日本推理小说的水平提升到了全新高度。

代表作有《八墓村》、《狱门岛》、《恶魔吹着笛子来》、《犬神家族》、《恶魔的彩球歌》等，在日本掀起的“横沟热潮”数十年不退，延续至今。

Seishi Yokomizo (1902-81) was one of Japan's most famous and best-loved mystery writers. He was born in Kobe and spent his childhood reading detective stories, before beginning to write stories of his own, the first of which was published in 1921. He went on to become an extremely prolific and popular author, best known for his Kosuke Kindaichi series, which ran to 77 books, selling more than 55 million copies and spawning many stage and television adaptations. The Honjin Murders is the first Kosuke Kindaichi story, and regarded as one of Japan's great mystery novels. It won the first Mystery Writers of Japan Award in 1948 but has never been translated into English, until now. Seishi Yokomizo's The Inugami Curse is also available from Pushkin Vertigo, while Gokumon Island is forthcoming.
