About this ebook

Half a year after moving to Kyoto, high school girl Aoi Mashiro brings her late grandfather’s old scrolls to Kura, an antique store nestled in Kyoto’s Teramachi-Sanjo shopping arcade, for an appraisal. One thing leads to another, and she winds up working there part-time. The manager’s son, Kiyotaka Yagashira—nicknamed the “Holmes of Kyoto”—is uncannily perceptive, and together, they solve strange cases relating to the antiques brought to them by clients.

Ratings and reviews

When I first saw the title I knew it would have some light mystery in it so I immediately purchased it. And it did not disappoint.. Though I am not a fan of highschool girls having a crush to someone older than them... I am impressed for the detail and effort made by the author to describe Kyoto and the works of art used in the story..You can really tell how much the author love the place ... I am truly looking forward for the next volume!

I first started reading because of the anime, and I am just so happy there is even more material in the series to continue following this sweet and wonderful series! I pre-order every book now :)

...Not the normal LN I like to read, but worth the buy...Tnx U For The Light Novel...
