After nearly dying and being pieced back together, Masamichi has gotten used to working at the antique shop Bougyoudou for the handsome and mysterious Shino, who saved his life. The man is actually a specter who has been living as a human since the Heian era thanks to a curse from a spiritual medium. As Masamichi gets to know the gruff man and discovers his kinder side, he begins to feel some strange feelings for the specter. Then one day, a visitor from London arrives with a request from his very wealthy boss-a request concerning a haunted house and the evil spirit within it...
Volume 3 of The Contract between a Specter and a Servant continues to offer a delicious blend of supernatural horror and everyday life. However, the real strength of this latest instalment in the story of Masamichi and his spectral master Shino is in their conversations and daily interactions. Shino is slowly (its taken many centuries) beginning to understand human relationships and even perhaps?… develop some feelings of his own. Volume 4 is due out in May (digital) and June (paperback) and promises a trip to Kyoto and Shinos roots (Heian Kyo) I can't wait! Read Full Review
