Plot Summary:
I beleive it should be " freelance journalist Minagami Hayato" rather than "freelance photographer Minagami Hayato".
Set in an alternate history of Japan, freelance journalist Hayato Mitogami returns to his hometown of Ootomo to investigate rumors of a man wearing a skull mask committing murders there. Once in the city, he discovers connections between the victims and a local pharmaceutical company, a new religious sect, and strange half human, half animal creatures. Along with a young photographer Kiriko Mamiya, he decides to find out who the Skull Man really is.
