520    What happens when the living risk their lives to save the 
       souls of the dead? Every summer, in an isolated Japanese 
       village, a celebration known as the Festival of Shadows 
       takes place. The villagers are entrusted to assist the 
       troubled souls or "shadows" of those who died tragically, 
       and to help them come to terms with their deaths and find 
       eternal peace. Naoko, a young girl born in the village, is
       given a year to save the soul of a mysterious young man. 
       She develops strong feelings for her shadow--a handsome 
       young man, an artist--but he seems haunted by a terrible 
       secret. She has a year to find out what happened to him, 
       to help him come to terms with his past, and if she fails,
       his soul will be lost forever... As the year goes by, 
       Naoko finds herself teetering between the worlds of the 
       living and the dead. What is the terrible secret that 
       seems to be haunting her shadow? And could she be risking 
       her own life to help someone who has already lost his? 
       Naoko puts her own life on the line to save the soul of 
       this man she loves, in an exciting, moving and beautifully
       drawn story that takes the reader on a journey from the 
       beautiful Japanese countryside to glamorous Tokyo art 
       world.
