520    "In the wake of a devastating earthquake and tsunami, Yui,
       fleeing her violent husband, and Hiyori, a young orphan, 
       are taken in by a strange but kind old lady named Kiwa in 
       the small town of Kitsunezaki. The newly formed family 
       finds refuge in a mayoiga, a lost house, perched atop a 
       beautiful cape overlooking the sea. While helping to 
       rebuild Kitsunezaki, the three adapt to their new lives 
       and supernatural new home, slowly healing from their 
       troubled pasts. Kiwa regales Yui and Hiyori with local 
       legends--from the shapeshifting fox-woman who used to roam
       the mountains, to the demon Agamé and a sea snake who once
       terrorized the townspeople, preying upon their grief and 
       fears until they trapped the snake and the demon's claws 
       in an underwater cave. But when mysterious and sinister 
       events start happening around town, the three fear the 
       worst. Did the earthquake release Agamé and the sea snake 
       into the world again? Kiwa, Yui, and Hiyori join forces 
       with a merry band of kappa river spirits, a bold zashiki 
       warashi house spirit, and flying Jizo guardian statues to 
       save their new family and home and banish Agamé and the 
       snake once and for all"--|cProvided by publisher.
