Yuki just came back to Japan from the US and started working at Tokyo Daily not too long ago. Her boss and editor-in-chief, Matsuda, asked if she would be interested to go undercover to gather information regarding the Yamanaka gang. The gang was notorious and it had been hard to find evidence of their illegal acts. Matsuda thought it should be exposed and be rid of from their society once and for all. 

And Yuki was the perfect candidate, being a new face in the field and according to Matsuda, she was Akira's type. Akira was the leader of the Yamanaka. Yuki's job was to get close and pay attention to whom Akira was doing business with. And of course, Yuki and Akira ended up falling in love and they tried to find out what's really happening in Tokyo's underworld.

The novel masterfully intertwines personal and professional conflicts, creating a narrative tapestry rich with tension and emotional depth. As Yuki infiltrates Akira's world, the boundary between her duty as a reporter and her growing feelings for her supposed target blurs in ways neither woman anticipated.

Overall, this book is more than just a romance. It is a story of secrets, choices, and the cost of love in a world built on danger and power. It’s also a powerful and refreshing lesbian love story set in the midst of Tokyo’s dark underworld.
