The Books Oracle

Audition

by Ryū Murakami

Since the death of his wife seven years ago, documentary maker Aoyama has not dated anyone else. When his friend suggests holding fake film auditions to find a new bride, Aoyama meets the hauntingly beautiful Yamasaki Asami. What begins as romantic possibility descends into a chilling exploration of obsession, deception, and extreme psychological horror that will leave readers profoundly unsettled.
