500    Originally published in Japanese in 1973. 
520    In the winter of 1937, the village of Okamura is abuzz 
       with excitement over the forthcoming wedding of a son of 
       the grand Ichiyanagi family. But amid the gossip over the 
       approaching festivities, there is also a worrying rumour -
       it seems a sinister masked man has been asking questions 
       about the Ichiyanagis around the village. Then, on the 
       night of the wedding, the Ichiyanagi family are woken by a
       terrible scream, followed by the sound of eerie music - 
       death has come to Okamura, leaving no trace but a bloody 
       samurai sword, thrust into the pristine snow outside the 
       house. The murder seems impossible, but amateur detective 
       Kosuke Kindaichi is determined to get to the bottom of it.
